Manuscript Editing for Nursing Ethics Journal Articles
Nursing Ethics takes a practical approach to ethics in health care, relating each topic to the working environment. It emphasizes accountability in management, inter-professional relations, patient rights, and public welfare. SAGE Publications publishes it eight times a year, with an editorial office at Brunel University of London.
Empirical research and philosophical articles run 2,500 to 6,000 words, counting abstract, text, and references and excluding tables. Reviews of published research run up to 8,000 words, case studies up to 3,000, and commentaries up to 2,000. References follow Sage Vancouver, numbered, with citations and list matching exactly in spelling and year. Empirical papers carry a structured abstract of up to 300 words, with up to six keywords. Two statements of about 50 words follow the abstract, on originality and likely impact on practice. Ethical review is reported in both abstract and text, naming the committee, institution, and reference number. The matching EQUATOR checklist is uploaded with the manuscript. Review is double-anonymized, with two independent reviews. Submissions go through Sage Track.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for Nursing Ethics
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Nursing Ethics.
Sage's instructions for authors cover article lengths, abstracts, and ethics statements. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
Our scientific editing services include nursing and health sciences copy editing, line editing, and AMA and APA citation formatting. Academic proofreading covers the final read. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for Advances in Nursing Science and the Journal of Holistic Nursing.
