The Future of Nursing 2020-2030: Nurse Well-being Resource

A nation cannot fully thrive until everyone—no matter who they are, where they live, or how much money they make—can live their healthiest possible life, and helping people live their healthiest life is and has always been the essential role of nurses. Ultimately, the health and well-being of nurses influence the quality, safety, and cost of the care they provide, as well as organizations and systems of care.

This slide deck explores the factors that impact well-being for nurses, why it’s critical we address nurse well-being urgently, and the integrated interventions employers of nurses, nursing education programs, nursing leaders, licensing boards, and nursing organizations, can implement to support nurses fully.

Use the talking points and key messages in this resource to facilitate discussions among your networks that can catalyze change in the systems, structures, and policies that affect the health and well-being of nurses.
