As the delivery of healthcare transforms from disease-based episodic care to patient and population health-centric models of wellness care, nurses are facing new pressures and priorities to deliver high quality, safer and more consistent care both at the bedside and in the community. This is according to a recent survey by Wolters Kluwer, Health in which nearly all nurse respondents indicated that more access to information that drives evidence-based decisions at the point of care would result in a significant improvement in patient outcomes.
Practice readiness in this dynamic climate is increasingly viewed as a factor in care variability. According to more than 2,000 U.S. nurses, physicians, hospital leaders and consumers surveyed, more consistency in training and education is needed for new practitioners.
To take a closer look at these new realities in the nursing profession, Wolters Kluwer released a video series, ‘Care without Judgement,’ that explores how three practicing nurses at various stages of their careers are navigating these challenges while balancing their calling as a nurse. The series highlights recent trends and attitudes among nurses impacting the profession today and in the future as nurses work to keep pace with a changing healthcare system, evolving roles and care complexities.
The first of three Facebook Live events from the video series will cover the social determinants of health. It will be held on October 22, 2019, and will feature Dabrow Woods and Stuart Fisk, CRNP, Director, Center for Inclusion Health at Allegheny Health Network, who is also featured in the video.
The 2019 Wolters Kluwer, Health survey included feedback from nearly 2,000 nurses, physicians, hospital leaders and consumers in the US. Included were more than 350 nurses, nurse practitioners, CNOs and nursing directors.
