Lifelong learning contributes to the development of knowledge and skill in nursing. A focus on continuous learning is necessary to remain current on trends, practices, and the newest treatments in the field of nursing. Creation of a culture where educational growth is supported and promoted is vital to advancement of the nursing profession. Nurses’ satisfaction with their professional role can be further enhanced by demonstrated expertise through lifelong learning. Expertise in nursing is solidly founded on evidence-based practice. Research, education, and experience in nursing practice are linked to evidence-based practice and lifelong learning; both are essential to remaining well versed in health care service delivery.

The impulse for patient and public involvement (PPI) in health services reflects wider societal and policy concerns with citizenship and democratic participation. A consumerist turn in health policy has opened the door to advances in involvement initiatives, with nurses often playing a lead role. These involvement practices have developed in the interlinked areas of nursing practice, research, and education. Effective involvement is predicated upon emancipatory values and, as such, involvement practices are concerned with prevailing power relations. The actual form that involvement takes can be thorough, systematic, and empowering or partial, tokenistic, and subsumed under oppressive governance systems. Ultimately, involvement poses key questions for professional nursing identity, allowing for a re-imagining of professionalism that is essentially democratized and cooperative.

Heart failure is a progressive disorder. An estimated 400,000 Canadians are diagnosed annually with heart failure, and a quarter experience severe heart failure that is unresponsive to medical therapy. Autologous cell transplantation (ACT) has been proposed as a new approach for cardiac repair, and holds enormous potential for the regeneration of injured myocardium cells. Currently, ACT is under investigation in Canada. The use of ACT as a treatment alternative for heart failure patients has been established over the past 5 years across Europe and the United States. This paper will present a Canadian perception of the nursing practice, research, and theoretical implications associated with this new and innovative therapy.
