Abstract
Aim Design Methods Results Conclusion Impact Wider Global Community Reporting Method Patient or Public Contribution To identify Attributes, Characteristics and Demonstrations of nursing practice from both nurses' and people perspectives in today's healthcare environments. A secondary aim was to identify relevant differences between female and male nurses in the context of ACDs.This systematic review was informed by the Joanna Briggs Institute Convergent Integrated Approach to Mixed Study Systematic Reviews.The search included articles ranging from the years 2000 to 2023 across 10 electronic databases and multiple grey literature outlets. McMaster critical review forms and the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool were used to appraise article quality. The Convergent Integrated Approach to Mixed Study Systematic Reviews was used to guide data synthesis.Twenty articles were included in this review, 13 qualitative, five quantitative and two mixed‐methods studies. Three themes emerged, including knowledge, practice skills and interpersonal relationships. Differences in Attributes, Characteristics and Demonstrations of professional practice between women and men in nursing were also explored.Findings suggest that evolving healthcare environments challenge nurses to remain focused on patient‐centred and compassionate care. The review also supports nurses caring in a manner that empowers people, increases well‐being, and reduces suffering.Identified characteristics and attributes of nursing practice, including emphasis on continuous learning, interpersonal relationships and compassion, have a profound impact on nursing. Nurses should remain adaptable, compassionate and patient‐focused in an ever‐evolving healthcare environment. These foundational care principles are necessary for improving patient outcomes, enhancing trust between people and healthcare providers, and increasing inclusivity and diversity in the nursing workforce. Nurses worldwide should strive to embody these attributes to provide high‐quality, patient‐centred care in an inclusive environment in today's demanding healthcare environment. Gender‐specific differences in the perception and expression of professional Attributes, Characteristics and Demonstrations can inform inclusion and diversity efforts in the workplace. This systematic review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analysis guidelines.No Patient or Public Contribution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
