Professional practice model
Our nurses came together from across Sharp HealthCare to create a single professional practice model (PPM) to guide our nursing practice.
About our professional practice model
Nursing practice is complex. At Sharp, we understand this and we believe a PPM helps simplify and provide a common understanding for the work we do every day.
Nurses at all levels and settings integrate our PPM into daily practice. We ask that our nurses each reflect on their individual practice and incorporate the following statements into the important work they do each day.
