Reimagining a Culture of Nursing Excellence

Agility and innovation are vital when reimagining a culture of excellence in Healthcare. With the recent impact of a pandemic on the healthcare workforce combined with the Bureau of Labor Statistics projecting jobs for RNs to increase by 9% between 2020 and 2030, it becomes imperative to take a multifaceted approach in addressing nurse retention and engagement with a clear focus on quality outcomes and patient safety.

An organization committed to high reliability has persistent awareness of patient safety even in challenging and uncertain times.
