Notes on Nursing—June 2020 Issue

In this month’s newsletter, we recap the NurseHack4Health event, which (virtually) brought together 500+ nurses, healthcare professionals and tech enthusiasts to innovate around COVID-19. We share how lessons learned in Ward 5B during the 1980s are helping today’s frontline nurses overcome challenges and drive new standards of care. Finally, meet the awardees of the Johnson & Johnson Nurses Innovate QuickFire Challenge in Oncology and access free resources from AONL on Leading Through Crisis.
Inside the Issue

Inspiring Nurse Innovation and Leadership with Lessons from 5B

Like the pioneering nurses who were on the frontlines of the AIDS crisis in the 1980s, nurses on the frontlines of COVID-19 are overcoming challenges and driving new standards of care. Learn how the Rutgers University School of Nursing is inspiring nurse leaders of tomorrow with lessons from the nurses of Ward 5B.
