The University Of Medicine ( Iom ) Report

“Nurses are more than caregivers in today’s healthcare settings. They are teachers, advocates and pioneers in improving healthcare. They are stepping out of the old model and taking ownership for changes in healthcare. Nurses are developing their own scientific research programs to improve patient care. They are playing a pivotal role in healthcare reform. Nurses are becoming leaders, not followers in healthcare reform.”

This organization was designed to secure the services of prominent members of appropriate professions in the examination of policy matters relating to the health of the public. “The Institute acts to be an adviser to the federal government and, upon its own initiative, to identify issues of medical care, research, and education” (Institute of Medicine [IOM], 2010, p. 5) In October 2010, The IOM (Institute of Medicine) released the report, The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health. This report examines the changing roles of nursing in healthcare, changes in nursing education and

The Institute of Medicine’s 2010 report on The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health acknowledges the changing healthcare sector in the US and describes future vision of healthcare and the role of nurses to fulfill that vision. The United States always strives to provide affordable and quality healthcare to the entire population of the country. In order to achieve this goal an overall restructuring of the healthcare system was necessitated. Nurses are considered to be the central part of the healthcare system to provide high quality and safe patient care. Nursing in the US is the single largest segment of the healthcare workforce with almost 3 million nurses working in different areas across the county. The changing

Nursing is an emotionally fulfilling and rewarding carrier . The campaign for Nursing Future says nursing is fastest-growing occupation in US.In its Report on the future of Nursing, the institute of medicine states “an increase in the percentage of the nurses with a BSN is imperative as the scope of what the public need from nurses grows, expectation surrounding quality heighten, and the settings

The United States Health care system is in the mist of converting to a preventative, health management focus system from a treatment focused system. There has been plenty of benefits and trials during the transformative period, like as with any other changes. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) requested that a report be done that would bring clarity to and direct the nursing profession on their parts and conversions that nursing is going to face. In this essay the IOM report that was completed by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) on the future of nursing will be explored. There will be discussion of

This paper seeks to expand upon the 2010 Institute of Medicine’s report on the future of nursing, leading change, advancing health and illustrating its impact on nursing education, practice and leadership. There is an ongoing transformation in the healthcare system necessitated by the need to achieve a patient centered care in the community, public, and primary care settings in contrast to previous times. Nurses occupying vital roles in the healthcare system, need improvements in the areas mentioned above to

I will methodically analyze all parts of the study to assess the validity of the article, by contrasting and comparing the information provided, with previous literature. I will try to make sure that recommendations provided by the authors are congruous with nursing practice and beneficial to the advancement of it. I will as much as possible provide in depth detail of previous studies on the same topic that either support or contradict the analysis provided by this study and its authors.

In 2008, The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) and the Institute of Medicine (IOM) launched an initiative to assess and reform the nursing profession to address the complex unique nursing needs for the current world. The IOM report published in 2010 calls on nurses to take greater role in the healthcare system by taking leadership roles and obtaining high level education. The report envisions nurses to use their full potential and attain academic progression to redesign the healthcare profession in United States.

The impact of The Institute of Medicine Report (IOM) 2010 has a major influence on nursing education. The first issue addressed in the report is an increased emphasis on public and community nursing. In the past, only nurses holding a bachelors degree were experienced and trained in community and public health, and the IOM wants to change that. One particular area of change is that now associate degree nurses are being trained in these areas in order be able to transition into these fields more smoothly and directly from nursing school. Another area that is

This project gave the opportunity to integrate the knowledge, incorporate and implement the nursing and research theory to a real issues in my field. My project was implemented in my home health care and we plan to extend the project in the coming months to other agencies. I am very excited about watching the results and how successful would be my project. Our nursing experience gives us the unique opportunity to reflect on our careers and determine procedures or processes that can be improved. The completion of this course has given us the tools to do

“The Institute of Medicine (IOM) calls on nurses to take a greater role in America’s increasingly complex health care system. It acknowledges the need for nurses to take a leadership role in all settings to meet the demands of our forever changing health care system.” (IOM,n.d). It has been established that education makes a difference when it comes to nursing practice. Because there are numerous benefits in having an advanced education in nursing, those who currently hold an Associate’s degree in nursing should be required to obtain a Bachelor’s degree in nursing within 10 years.

In 2010, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) report, The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health, issued a call for academic progression with two specific goals for 2020: “The report’s authors reasoned that although associate degree nursing education is less costly and provides important upward mobility for diverse populations, higher degrees in nursing yield significant benefits for patients, employers, and communities” (Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, 2013).

Within (Young, Acord, Schuler & Hansen’s, 2014) article, it discusses the poor funding that the public healthcare is receiving. The shortage of the nursing faculty to teach new nurses is also growing. The challenges that the public healthcare system is experiencing is cause for concern on how to keep new nurses from leaving the field and/or to encourage these newer nurses to move into the academic area. The Quad Council created a paper in which they addressed the nursing shortage and put forth 18 recommendations to try and solve this issue. The issue of diversity also made an appearance in regards to persons of color and males within the nursing field. A study called Raising the Bar was put to test as WCN Scholars tried to make a 15% increase of C/PH nurses in specific
