Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urologic health care problems are often very complex, and nurses who treat these issues practice in a wide range of settings with patients across the lifespan. The urologic nursing specialty requires its professionals to have a comprehensive knowledge of developmental and aging changes that are essential to understanding acute and chronic urological diseases. To that end, SUNA has released the Urologic Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice, Second Edition. This resource defines and describes the scope of practice, educational preparation, certification, and practice environment/population focus of the urologic registered nurse (RN) and advanced practice registered nurse (APRN). These standards outline current challenges to urologic nursing and the competencies all urologic nurses are expected to attain.
