Ten years ago, the Institute of Medicine released its report on the future of nursing, which prescribed how the profession could be better prepared for the shift from hospital-based services to a system more focused on prevention and wellness. Nurse.com recently spoke with several Campaign for Action leaders on the work that has been done.
Susan B. Hassmiller, PhD, RN, FAAN, director of the Campaign for Action, Mary Dickow, MPA, FAAN, program director for HealthImpact, and Karren Kowalski, PhD, RN, NEA-BC, FAAN, former president and CEO of the Colorado Center for Nursing Excellence, weighed in strides that have been made, and improvement that must still come.
