PAVING THE PATH OF GOOD GOVERNANCE: AN UPDATE ON THE NURSING ROADMAP

Written by Administrator

What’s new in the Nursing Roadmap? How is Road mapping an adaptive and proactive means to create the future of Philippine Nursing to be globally competitive?

With the nursing profession’s vision of becoming the lead in promoting Philippine Nursing in the Asia Pacific Region by 2030, five strategic themes and four perspectives set the framework of the Balance Scorecard (BSC) that will determine the outcome measures that will have to be achieved. The five strategic themes are: Dynamic Leadership, Service Excellence, Operational Excellence, Strategic Partnerships and Social Responsibility. The performance of the nursing profession shall be measured across four balanced perspectives namely: Learning and Growth, Internal Processes, Customer and Financial Perspectives. These are the key areas of the nursing profession into which objectives naturally fit.
The crafting of the Nursing Roadmap is a continuing work in progress participated in by three (3) clusters of organizations, namely: the Philippine Nurses Association (PNA) as the accredited professional organization, the nursing specialty organizations and nursing interest groups. The nursing profession’s charter statement, i.e., mission, vision and values, shall be the banner, we, Filipino nurses shall hold together.

In 2007, the Board of Nursing and representatives from nursing practice, education and nursing welfare formed the Coordinating Body for Good Governance of the Nursing Profession (CBGGN) and together with 16 nursing organizations committed to work together to uplift the status of Philippine nursing. With the Board of Nursing taking the lead, the nursing profession through the CBGGNP, enrolled in the Institute for Solidarity in Asia (ISA) Public Governance System (PGS) Program and earned the recognition of “PGS Compliant” for following the public governance system process in August 2007.

The CBGGNP struggled in its efforts to create a comprehensive strategic plan. Concerns on organizational structure, administrative matters and logistics needed to be seriously addressed. As more questions were raised, the CBGGNP acknowledged the need for more guidance and decided to consult on the process of roadmapping. This would necessitate a formal engagement with ISA as the consultant on strategy development and execution. A Series of meetings, discussions and exploratory talks with ISA ensued.

ISA would provide the technology to process the strategy which is based on the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) framework and customize the process to ensure that it captures all the feasible and workable strategies that the nursing profession wishes to undertake. The Roadmap and the BSC is for the entire nursing profession to integrate and cascade the information and strategies to all stakeholders through alignment and subsidiary scorecards. Because this work is of great magnitude affecting the present and the future of the nursing profession in the Philippines, it will necessitate the creation of an Office of Strategy Management.

The main product of the roadmapping process is the “Good Governance Pathway”. As such, the Nursing Profession would need to progress in the public governance pathway from “Compliant” to “Proficient” status. To achieve this goal and assist the nursing profession in this journey would entail the formal engagement of ISA as consultant of the nursing sector for it to audit, assess and intervene in accordance with the Nursing Roadmap and the strategies that the profession decides to undertake.

The engagement proposal and its details will be presented and discussed with the nursing organizations to ensure full involvement, participation and ownership of the Nursing Roadmap by the whole nursing profession – now and in the future, even beyond 2030.

If all nurses, as stakeholders, take on the commitment now, is there a certainty that future nursing leadership will do the same? The Nursing Roadmap addresses this by strengthening a multi-sector coalition that shall share resources, responsibilities and accountabilities which is also a means of guaranteeing commitment. Furthermore, the Nursing Roadmap will propel the profession to work towards institutionalization with a fully functioning Office of Strategy Management which shall regularly monitor the strategic performance of the profession. With the involvement and vigilance of every nurse in safeguarding the integrity and fulfillment of its mission and vision, we have reason to anticipate the success of the Nursing Roadmap 2030!
