The nurse needs to shift into the moving phase,which incorporates taking the lead by being responsible and willing to implement change by sorting out what must be done and by facilitating an appropriate and effective approach.Whenever one is not happy with a situation or procedure,it is important that providing suggestions for change be incorporated into the process.Discussing concerns with fellow nurses does not actively involve the change process.For change to be effective,it must have "buy-in" from other staff and not merely inform the staff or change nurse of how there is a better way to administer the medications on the unit.
