"Providing support and opportunities for personal growth and involvement outside of bedside nursing is essential to ensure that nurses are able to gain a greater understanding of the community and needs of the patient populations served."

-Monica Woolman

 

Team Focus - IOM recommendations related to nursing leadership and public/population health

​

IOM Objectives:

• Prepare and enable nurses to lead change to advance health in MI

• Participate on boards/advisory groups for orgs that can impact public/population health

• Ensure nurses are empowered by their employers to participate on boards/advisory groups

​

We are passionate about the leadership action team because in order make a difference in nursing we need to have strong leaders that posses the clinical knowledge to lead teams and build new leaders.  Providing support and opportunities for personal growth and involvement outside of bedside nursing is essential to ensure that nurses are able to gain a greater understanding of the community and needs of the patient populations served. Thus allowing us to provide excellent care and ensure that current standards of care are followed. Leading teams is challenging and we would love for this team to develop support networks for current leaders, growth opportunities within leadership, and education pathways for those who are interested in leadership.
