Unsung heroes: school nurses adapting and innovating in response to COVID-19

Many school nurses were already overwhelmed, but as school districts across the country return to school amid COVID-19, they are facing profound challenges to ensure both student and staff safety. Six school nurses share their thoughts on the pandemic and how they’re innovating to adapt.

Have a great idea aiming to improve COVID-19 patient care?

Together with the American Organization for Nursing Leadership and the Society of Nurse Scientists, Innovators, Entrepreneurs & Leaders, Johnson & Johnson is inviting nurses worldwide to share their innovative ideas in the Johnson & Johnson Nurses Innovate QuickFire Challenge: COVID-19 Patient Care.

Student nurses didn't hesitate to join the frontlines and propose innovative solutions to COVID-19 this year. Lynda Benton of Johnson & Johnson believes we can be doing even more to support nursing students as innovators and explores how schools across the country are helping equip nurses to claim their seat at the table.
