Equip nurses with leadership and innovation skills to advance transformative health system solutions
For healthcare to work, it takes nurses. Nursing burnout, turnover, and vacancy rates especially in acute care and hospital settings continue to be an issue for many health systems. Understanding what kind of work environment is important to nurses is the first step toward addressing the foundational issues that can cause them to leave. Through programs that focus on innovation and leadership skills, we can help support more nurse-led solutions that can transform health systems and create environments where nurses and patients can thrive.
J&J Nurse Innovation Fellowship
This ground-breaking, one-year, team-based nursing fellowship is focused on advancing healthcare by powering-up nurse-led innovation and leadership within health systems. Powered by Penn Nursing and Wharton Executive Education, the fellowship will immerse participants in the innovation process by focusing on human-centered design and design thinking methodologies and will teach fellows how to apply it to a specific challenge faced by their health system.

Champion nursing as an innovative, high-impact, purpose-driven career
Nurses are the backbone and heart of health care, and nursing has been recognized as the most trusted profession in a Gallup poll for over 20 years. Yet we know that the impact of nurses in health care remains undervalued, and the expertise of nurses is underutilized. That is why Johnson & Johnson is a passionate advocate for elevating awareness of the fundamental value of the nursing profession.
