GCU BSN NRS 415 TOPIC 2 DQ 1: Explain the role of professional development (life-long learning) in the context of this standard.
The scope and standards of practice guide the nursing profession in competence and performance expectations. The scope of practice for nursing defines the activities that a person licensed as a nurse is permitted to perform while the standards of practice delineate performance expectations for all registered nurses.

Review "Scope of Nursing Practice" from<em> Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice</em>, located in the Topic 2 Resources. Standard 12 of the standards of practice describes the nurse's role related to education. Explain the role of professional development (life-long learning) in the context of this standard.
