American Nurses Association Code Of Ethics

The American Nurses Association is the only full-service professional organization in the United States that exemplifies the importance of 3.6 million registered nurses across its 54 constituent member associations (American Nurses Association-Members and Affiliates, 2015). It attempts to improve and safeguard the nurses’ welfare in their respective work places, give a promising vision of nursing as a profession to the public and be a defender on matters that concern members of the public and nurses.

Some of its organizational members include the (AAN) American Association of Nurses and different groups that are devoted to several nursing subfields like the Association of Nurses in AIDS Care (ANAC) and the American Association of Critical-Care Nursing (AACCN) (American Nurses Association-Members and Affiliates, 2015).
