To become more politically active, I will engage in policy advocacy through professional nursing organizations and educate myself on how political ideologies influence healthcare access and equity. Joining a professional nursing organization like the American Nurses Association (ANA) (once I become a nurse) gives me a pathway to help influence healthcare legislation and stay informed about policy issues affecting patients and nurses. Mason (2020) emphasizes that nurses have historically been underrepresented in political conversations, even though they are the largest group of healthcare providers. By becoming involved in an organization, I can support advancement such as expanding access to care, improving community health, and protecting the Affordable Care Act (ACA). These actions can help me build leadership skills and fulfill my nursing responsibility to advocate for my patients.

Additionally, I will research how religion, politics, and power intersect in healthcare, as discussed by Reimer-Kirkham (2019). Understanding how political and cultural systems shape healthcare practices allows me to become a more inclusive and ethical nurse. This type of reflection is key to developing a professional identity grounded in social justice and respect for diverse patient experiences. Nursing is not neutral, and by staying politically engaged, I can help create a more equitable healthcare system for all.
