Abstract

The theme in this paper is empowerment through teamwork; empowering nurses to carry out research which results in benefits for themselves, their colleagues and their patients. The authors discuss their differing roles in ward-based research and how they collaborated to improve wound management. This series looks at some ways nurses in Nursing Development Units (NDUs) have tried to make their nursing more beneficial to patients. The nurses assess to what extent their initiatives really do contribute to patient well-being and what has helped them bring about the changes. Each book will help nurses to introduce new ideas to their work and will suggest ways to evaluate changing practices.
