Abstract

Transformational nursing leaders develop environments that empower nurses to achieve nursing excellence. The systems identified by the Magnet Accreditation program, such as shared governance and peer review, help achieve these environments. During the project, a peer review tool based upon the American Nurses Association (ANA) standards of practice was developed. The tool was revised to assist staff nurses with identification of medical record items that exemplified each standard while they were completing the mandatory medical record audits required by the Joint Commission.
