Get Inspired
How are Nurse Leaders Inspiring Future Nurse Innovators?
When a design, when an idea, when simply thinking differently can save lives, it's important to make sure nurse innovators know how to move forward. That means empowering them to move from the bedside into the boardroom. Their extensive, hands-on patient experience means they’re the first to identify a patient’s problems and needs. And with their training, skills and innate resourcefulness, they’re also qualified to help shape what healthcare is, into what healthcare ought to be.Here, we’ve collected stories from nurse leaders who have done just that. From past to present, they’re inspiring a new generation of innovators. Even if they don't consider themselves innovators yet.
