Tri-Council for Nursing report offers framework for transformation

The Tri-Council for Nursing released an in-depth report at the start of National Nurses Week, Transforming Together: Implications and Opportunities from the COVID-19 Pandemic for Nursing Education, Practice, and Regulation. “Born out of the many lessons learned from COVID-19, we’ve built a cross-sector framework focused on improving health care, better managing the ongoing pandemic, and ensuring a more effective response to any future pandemics,” said Robyn Begley, AONL CEO and AHA chief nursing officer and senior vice president of workforce. The report is expected to inspire innovative disruption around six distinctive themes deemed essential to the future of nursing education, practice and regulation: equity and health equity; ethics; nursing workforce; innovation; interprofessional emergency planning and response; and mental health and well-being. AONL is a member of the Tri-Council for Nursing. (National Council of State Boards of Nursing news release, 5/6/21)
