The American Journal of Nursing is the oldest and largest circulating nursing journal in the world. Clinical articles focus on acute care, health promotion and prevention, rehabilitation, emergencies, critical care, home health care, etc. Columns present additional perspectives on clinical care, such as ethics, the law, practice errors, pain and symptom management, and professional issues.
AJN has published award-winning series over the past six years. In 2007, AJN launched a series of articles and videos on assessment tools and best practice approaches to caring for older adults. This “How to Try This” series is provided in partnership with New York University’s Hartford Institute for Geriatric Nursing and is funded in part by a grant from the John A. Hartford Foundation. In 2005, AJN received a grant from the National Kidney Foundation for a series on nursing management of chronic kidney disease and, in 2004, Atlantic Philanthropies provided a grant to the Gerontological Society of America to partner with AJN on a 15-part print and video series on geriatric nursing ("A New Look at the Old"). In 2002, the journal received a grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to publish a 16-part series on palliative nursing. All of these articles are available online for free and provide the opportunity for readers to received continuing education credits.
AJN's mission is to promote excellence in nursing and health care through the dissemination of evidence-based, peer-reviewed clinical information and original research, discussion of relevant and controversial professional issues, adherence to the standards of journalistic integrity and excellence, and promotion of nursing perspectives to the health care community and the public.
