Editorial Reflections on Now and Then and the Future of Pediatric Nursing

Abstract

Recently an article was published entitled, The future of pediatric nursing science (Harrison et al., 2020). It is both an important and timely article as it addresses what has become an impending challenge to fostering the development of the science and practice in the field of pediatric nursing. The authors identify a number of trends that threaten the expansion of pediatric nursing science, and ultimately, the evidence to support pediatric nursing practice.
