From time to time, the Scout Report profiles a professional organization whose site will be of interest to a broad range of readers. While the American Nurses Association website does have some material that is strictly for members only, there is a significant amount of relevant and timely free content of note. The first place visitors might start is “The Nursing Insider”. This handy feature tracks news items that will be of general interest, including those that deal with the changing landscape of health care policy and service-provisioning across the United States. For those looking for older stories, their online archive for this feature dates back to 2000. Another valuable feature of the site is the area dedicated to the Online Journal of Issues in Nursing. Like many other peer-reviewed online academic publications, the Journal is a high-quality publication that deals with a number of compelling topics in the field. Additionally, the Publications section contains a number of free publications, including several that address the possibility of pursuing a career in nursing and some general fact sheets about the organization.
