The recently released American Nephrology Nurses' Association (ANNA) Nephrology Nursing Scope and Standards of Practice, 7th edition, provides a broad foundation for defining and evaluating nephrology nursing practice. ANNA's standards present a similar approach as the American Nurses Association (ANA) 2010 standards. The ANNA Nephrology Nursing Scope and Standards of Practice, 7th edition, is expanded to incorporate a section on how to use the standards in practice. This article provides an overview of the scope of practice, standards, and situations that require intervention by nephrology nurses. Samples of tools that can be used to incorporate the standards into the various situations are discussed.
