The challenges for neuroscience nursing in the future are :
• Ensuring appropriate access to neurological care for all patients.
• Advance the art and science of neurology and nursing and thereby promote the best possible care for patients with neurological disorders.
• Supporting and advocating for an environment, which ensures ethical, high quality neurological care.
• Providing excellence in professional education by offering a variety of programs in both the clinical and nursing aspects of neurology and the basic neurosciences to other nurses and allied health professionals.
• Supporting clinical and basic research in the neuroscience nursing and related fields.
• Developing evidence based care for neuro-patients.• Develop the model and tools how the competences of neuro
science nursing are recognised, assessed and confessed.
