  21. Key Takeaways • High degree of trust and confidence in nurses as an information source, behind Doctors. • Nurses have least amount of influence on future healthcare reform. • Nurses should have more influence on planning, policy, and management of health systems and services. • Nurses' primary influence is in reducing medical errors, quality care outcomes, and coordinating the patient journey. • Major barriers to nursing contribution is that nurses are not perceived as key decision makers. • Increasing the voice of nurses, expectations and accountability, improving perceptions of nursing among others, and improving the selection and training of nurses would remove barriers.
