How We Support Nursing Innovation

For years, many in healthcare have been focused on improving health equity and reducing disparities. However, despite these efforts, a new report finds little has changed in the last two decades. Now more than ever, we need new models of care, new policies and new ways of thinking about the healthcare workforce to end health and healthcare inequities.

A new resource from the Duke University School of Nursing is empowering nurses to make artificial intelligence (AI) an ally in their nursing practice. Nurse and Associate Professor Michael Cary, PhD, RN, FAAN emphasizes the importance of training and educating nurses for practice in the era of AI and how to use it to best benefit patients.

Nurses are well-positioned to create transformative solutions for healthcare delivery, especially leveraging technology to care for patients more effectively and efficiently. Nurses Kelly Ayala and Shannon Hattenhauer are solving care gaps through Streamline Flow, a new and innovative solution that simplifies healthcare workflows and helps patients stay on their care plan.
