nursing discussion board: is there a difference between being a lobbyist or advocate?

Learning Goal: I’m working on a nursing discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

This week’s readings and lecture offered information related to lobbyists and advocates. Is there a difference between being a lobbyist and an advocate? Lobbyists provide support for policy, as do advocates, so what is the difference? Most nurses consider themselves patient advocates; however a political advocate is somewhat different. In this discussion, differentiate between a lobbyist and an advocate. Be sure to discuss a political advocate rather than a bedside advocate.

Topics to include:

  • Definition of a lobbyist.
  • Definition of an advocate.
  • Similarities and differences.
  • Why are they both important?
  • How does one of your selected organizations (choose one you used in your week 1 DB – What is the definition of Nursing Excellence – these organizations were discussed in the week 1 PowerPoint) lobby or advocate for health care policy? -National League or Nursing and World Health Organization were used in week 1 discussion board.

Your initial post must be posted before you can view and respond to colleagues, must contain minimum of two (2) references, in addition to examples from your personal experiences to augment the topic. The goal is to make your post interesting and engaging so others will want to read/respond to it. Synthesize and summarize from your resources in order to avoid the use of direct quotes, which can often be dry and boring. No direct quotes are allowed in the discussion board posts.

Must include intro and conclusion paragraphs.

Minimum 200 words excluding references (approximately one (1) page)
