Professional Development

LLUMC-Murrieta (LLUH) Nursing Professional Practice Model

Nursing Professional Practice Model

  • LLUH uses the Duffy Quality-Caring Model
    • The foundation of the Duffy QCM is that the nature of nursing’s work is the development of a caring relationship that “influences positive health outcomes for patients and families, healthcare providers and healthcare systems” (Duffy & Hoskins, 2003).
    • Ultimately this relationship assists nurses in connecting and gaining insight in order to understand the meaning of illness, beliefs, and preferences of patients, families, and other team members.
       
  • Loma Linda University School of Nursing provides a wide range of undergraduate and graduate nursing degrees. Here is a link to our program page - Programs | School of Nursing (llu.edu)
