  7. Education

  8. Education • Evidence • Significant association between educational level and patient outcomes • 6 percent of AD grads get advanced degree, enabling them to teach and serve as PCPs, compared to 20 percent of BSN grads

  9. Practice • All practitioners should practice to full extent of their education and training • Optimal care • Physicians, nurses and other health professionals work in team-based model of care delivery • Models of care maximize time that providers can spend on their respective roles and responsibilities to patients

  10. Practice • Evidence: More than 10 studies show equivalent patient outcomes when care is provided by APRN or MD for certain services • Includes two Cochrane reviews • Randomized clinical trial published in JAMA • Office of Technology Assessment • No studies show care is better in states that do not allow APRNs to practice to full extent of education and training

  11. Practice

  12. Collaboration • Integrated, collaborative, patient-centered health care teams • Foster interprofessional education, training and practice

  13. Leadership • Nurses bring important viewpoint to management and policy discussions • Prepare more nurses to help lead improvements in health care quality, safety, access and value

  14. Leadership • Gallup survey of 1,500 opinion leaders* said nurses should have more: • Influence in reducing medical errors, increasing quality of care, promoting wellness • Input and impact in planning, policy development and management * RWJF, 2010

  15. Nurse Leaders in the Boardroom • Survey of 1,000 U.S. hospitals* found: • Nurses account for only 6 percent of board members • Physicians are 20 percent of board members • Other clinicians are 5 percent of board members * American Hospital Association, 2011
