The Future of Nursing

In 2010, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation enlisted the Institute of Medicine to assess the changes needed to transform healthcare through nursing.  The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health (IOM, 2010) was a landmark report that addressed four key messages related to nurse training, education, professional leadership and workforce policy, with specific recommendations to advance nursing.

Key Messages (Institute of Medicine, 2010)

 (Links to an external site.)

1 Nurses should practice to the full extent of their education and training.

2 Nurses should achieve higher levels of education and training through an improved education system that promotes seamless academic progression.

3 Nurses should be full partners, with physicians and other health professionals, in redesigning health care in the United States.

4 Effective workforce planning and policy making require better data collection and an improved information infrastructure.

The full report is available on the RWJF Future of Nursing website (http://www.thefutureofnursing.org/

The Campaign for Action is an initiative supported by the RWJF and AARP to monitor and support the implementation of the IOM recommendations.  Many of you are familiar with the recommendation to Increase the Proportion of Registered Nurses with a Baccalaureate degree to 80% by 2020. According to the Florida Center for Nursing, what percent of employed registered nurses had a BSN or higher degree? (Charlotte, DeSoto, Manatee, and Sarasota Counties)

· 22%

· 31%

· 56%

· 80%

The correct answer is 31.4%–still far from the 80% goal by the year 2020 (source: Suncoast Nursing Action Coalition).  The Florida Center for Nursing and the Florida Action Coalition are actively working with state and community partners to increase the number of working RNs with a BSN and to achieve the other recommendations of the IOM report.  By enrolling and successfully completing the BSN, you contribute to improved patient care outcomes and promote nursing leadership in healthcare.
