Journal Descriptions
Policy, Politics, & Nursing Practice is a long‑established, peer‑reviewed academic journal that serves as a premier platform for scholarship at the nexus of nursing practice, health policy, and political science. Since its launch in 2000, the journal has published rigorous research, policy analyses, critical reviews, theoretical essays, and commentaries that explore how legislative agendas, regulatory frameworks, government actions, and political environments influence nursing and health care delivery. Its scope includes empirical studies that assess the impact of health policy reforms on nursing outcomes, workforce dynamics, and patient care quality; analyses of nurses’ roles as advocates, policymakers, and leaders; and examinations of organizational and systemic influences on practice environments. The journal’s mission is to advance evidence‑based understanding of policy issues that affect nurses across diverse settings and to inform both academic audiences and frontline professionals involved in health systems. Articles draw upon quantitative, qualitative, and mixed‑methods research, as well as policy discourse and comparative studies across states and countries. Policy, Politics, & Nursing Practice is indexed in major databases such as MEDLINE/PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, and Web of Science (ESCI), reflecting its scholarly reach and influence in nursing, health policy, and public health research.
