New website launched for the Future of Nursing Campaign for Action

A new website has been launched for the Future of Nursing Campaign for Action. You will find information on the work being done nationwide to transform healthcare through nursing by mobilizing coalitions representing nurses, health providers, consumers, educators and businesses. Their mission is to promote implementation of recommendations in the Institute of Medicine report, The Future of Nursing:  Leading Change, Advancing Health

These efforts are backed by Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and AARP. Texas has joined the efforts as a state-action coalition, with leadership including Alexia Green, Professor and Dean Emeritus, Anita Thigpen Perry School of Nursing, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center; Cindy Johnson, Vice President Clinical Services, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas; and Ellarene Sanders, Executive Director, Texas Nurses Association

Check out the website to stay up to date on what is happening locally and nationally www.campaignforaction.org. More information can be found at the Texas Nursing Resource Center website under the North Texas Region tab.
