Section 1Integrity is an important concept in any environment. This is particularly true for
the nursing education environment where integrity is necessary to ensure competency. For
nursing students, academic and professional integrity are important concepts. Academic
integrity refers to the expectation to uphold the fundamental values of responsibility,
fairness, respect, honesty and trust that guide students in their academic endeavors and
activities. Violating any of these fundamental values implies a violation of the academic
integrity expectation. Some of the activities that violate these values include dishonesty,
plagiarism, copying, cheating, fabricating/falsifying data and information, abuse of
confidentiality, inappropriate conduct, and research misconduct (Hurd, 2019). Professional
integrity refers to behaving in a manner that is consistent with the professional and ethical
expectations of the work and practice environment. It articulates the expectation that an
individual will act in a manner that is consistent with the profession’s code of conduct and
code of ethics while suspending personal bias and demonstrating the capacity for honesty,
clear thought and respect (Steneck et al., 2015). Promoting Integrity and Professional
EthicsIt is clear that both academic integrity and professional integrity introduce the
unconditional need for academic and professional activities to be conducted in an ethical
manner. A common link between the two (academic integrity and professional integrity) is
the concern about plagiarism. By definition, plagiarism is concerned with identifying
unacknowledged use of sources of information, whether intentional or unintentional.
Guarding against plagiarism requires that all sources of information and ideas be correctly
acknowledged using the right format (Bretag, 2017). Guarding against plagiarism requires a
good mastery of language with paraphrasing capabilities. In addition, it requires access to
software such as Grammarly, and SafeAssign. These software conduct plagiarism checks,
looking for identical phrases and word combinations. Grammarly goes a step further in
identifying common grammar, syntax, tenses, sentence structure, spelling and word
combination mistakes and suggesting appropriate corrections.Nursing education and
professional practice involve managing interpersonal relationships and complex system.
Whether in school or during practice, nurses are entrusted with the responsibility of
providing medical care in an environment that includes patients and other medical
personnel. Performing in such an environment requires that nurses be respectful.
Developing respect and cognizance for others begins in nursing school and continues in the
practice environment. Professional integrity and academic integrity is an important
component of respect, and is part of the skills developed in school and at work since it
addresses issues of conduct and the capacity for responsible practice (Andre & Heartfield,
2012).Part 3, Section 2Maintaining integrity of work is an imperative for all nurses in the
school and work environment, and it involves upholding the fundamental values of
responsibility, fairness, respect, honesty and trust. Although it is important for nurses to
uphold these fundamental values, a complex web of situational, behavioral and contextual
issues act as motivations that determine the extent to which they uphold these values.
Understanding these issues (the complex web of situational, behavioral and contextual
issues) is important for developing and pursuing strategies for maintaining academic
integrity and professional integrity (Andre & Heartfield, 2012).There are five strategies that
nurses can applying to maintain academic integrity and professional integrity. Firstly,
developing competence in ethical and moral reasoning. This requires an understanding of
the different ethical theories and familiarizing with their arguments s as to easily apply
them in decision-making. Secondly, considering the perspectives of others when facing
situations affecting them. Promoting Integrity and Professional Ethics This involves not
making unilateral decisions in issues affecting others as no single person has all the answers
and it is important to consult so as to collect diverse and competing perspectives that would
then be used as resources (Bretag, 2017). Thirdly, acting in a manner that contributes to the
community. Integrity is all about bettering the community, and having the mind to
contribute towards the community helps in maintaining integrity. Fourthly, cultivating
integrity by acting with a sense of honor. This includes being honest and acknowledging all
sources of information and ideas. Finally, consciously pursuing strong ethics and striving for
excellence. Deliberately pursuing strong ethics turns integrity into a habit so that
opportunities for violating integrity expectations are eliminated (Hurd,
2019).ReferencesAndre, K. & Heartfield, M. (2012). Professional Portfolios: Evidence of

This is particularly true for the nursing education environment where integrity is necessary to ensure competency. For nursing students, academic and professional integrity are important concepts. Academic integrity refers to the expectation to uphold the fundamental values of responsibility, fairness, respect, honesty and trust that guide students in their academic endeavors and activities. Violating any of these fundamental values implies a violation of the academic integrity expectation. Some of the activities that violate these values include dishonesty,
  • 2. plagiarism, copying, cheating, fabricating/falsifying data and information, abuse of confidentiality, inappropriate conduct, and research misconduct (Hurd, 2019). Professional integrity refers to behaving in a manner that is consistent with the professional and ethical expectations of the work and practice environment. It articulates the expectation that an individual will act in a manner that is consistent with the profession’s code of conduct and code of ethics while suspending personal bias and demonstrating the capacity for honesty, clear thought and respect (Steneck et al., 2015). Promoting Integrity and Professional EthicsIt is clear that both academic integrity and professional integrity introduce the unconditional need for academic and professional activities to be conducted in an ethical manner. A common link between the two (academic integrity and professional integrity) is the concern about plagiarism. By definition, plagiarism is concerned with identifying unacknowledged use of sources of information, whether intentional or unintentional. Guarding against plagiarism requires that all sources of information and ideas be correctly acknowledged using the right format (Bretag, 2017). Guarding against plagiarism requires a good mastery of language with paraphrasing capabilities. In addition, it requires access to software such as Grammarly, and SafeAssign. These software conduct plagiarism checks, looking for identical phrases and word combinations. Grammarly goes a step further in identifying common grammar, syntax, tenses, sentence structure, spelling and word combination mistakes and suggesting appropriate corrections.Nursing education and professional practice involve managing interpersonal relationships and complex system. Whether in school or during practice, nurses are entrusted with the responsibility of providing medical care in an environment that includes patients and other medical personnel. Performing in such an environment requires that nurses be respectful. Developing respect and cognizance for others begins in nursing school and continues in the practice environment. Professional integrity and academic integrity is an important component of respect, and is part of the skills developed in school and at work since it addresses issues of conduct and the capacity for responsible practice (Andre & Heartfield, 2012).Part 3, Section 2Maintaining integrity of work is an imperative for all nurses in the school and work environment, and it involves upholding the fundamental values of responsibility, fairness, respect, honesty and trust. Although it is important for nurses to uphold these fundamental values, a complex web of situational, behavioral and contextual issues act as motivations that determine the extent to which they uphold these values. Understanding these issues (the complex web of situational, behavioral and contextual issues) is important for developing and pursuing strategies for maintaining academic integrity and professional integrity (Andre & Heartfield, 2012).There are five strategies that nurses can applying to maintain academic integrity and professional integrity. Firstly, developing competence in ethical and moral reasoning. This requires an understanding of the different ethical theories and familiarizing with their arguments s as to easily apply them in decision-making. Secondly, considering the perspectives of others when facing situations affecting them. Promoting Integrity and Professional Ethics This involves not making unilateral decisions in issues affecting others as no single person has all the answers and it is important to consult so as to collect diverse and competing perspectives that would then be used as resources (Bretag, 2017). Thirdly, acting in a manner that contributes to the

Fourthly, cultivating integrity by acting with a sense of honor. This includes being honest and acknowledging all sources of information and ideas. Finally, consciously pursuing strong ethics and striving for excellence. Deliberately pursuing strong ethics turns integrity into a habit so that opportunities for violating integrity expectations are eliminated (Hurd, 2019).ReferencesAndre, K. & Heartfield, M. (2012).
