Campaign for Action: Key Messages
http://campaignforaction.org/state/virginia
1. Nurses should practice to the full extent of their education and training
2. Nurses should achieve higher levels of education and training through an improved education system that promotes seamless academic progression
3. Nurses should be full partners, with physicians and other health professionals, in redesigning health care in the US
4. Effective workforce planning and policy making require better data collection and an improved information infrastructure
Blueprint – Four Key Messages
http://campaignforaction.org/state/virginia
• Remove scope of practice barriers• Expand opportunities for interprofessional collaboration• Implement nurse residency programs• Increase proportion of nurses with BSN to 80% by 2020• Double the number of nurses with doctorates• Ensure that nurses engage in lifelong learning• Prepare and enable nurses to lead change and advance
healthcare• Build an infrastructure for data collection

Campaign for Action Pillars
http://campaignforaction.org/state/virginia
Implement nurse residency programs
Increase the number of nurses with doctorates
Promote lifelong learning
Increase the proportion of nurses with BSN and higher degrees
Education
http://campaignforaction.org/state/virginia
Evidence
Some association between educational level and patient outcomes
Twenty percent of BSN graduates get advanced degrees
Six percent of associate-degree graduates get advanced degrees
Aiken et al., 2003; Estabrooks et al., 2005; Friese et al., 2008;Tourangeau et al., 2007; Van den Heede et al., 2009; Aiken, 2009.
Education
http://campaignforaction.org/state/virginia
All practitioners should practice to the full extent of their education and training
Physicians, nurses and other health professionals work in a team-based model of care delivery
Models of care maximize time that providers can spend on their respective roles and responsibilities to patients
Practice
http://campaignforaction.org/state/virginia
Evidence
Studies show that APRNs permitted to practice to full extent of education and training provide equal or better care
Patient satisfaction • Length of stay • NPs: BP, glucose, lipid control • CNMs: Fewer C-sections, fewer episiotomies
Systematic review of published literature between 1990 and 2008 indicate patient outcomes of care provided by APRNs and equivalent or better than MD

Leadership
http://campaignforaction.org/state/virginia
*RWJF, 2010**American Hospital Association, 2011
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
Survey of 1,000 U.S. hospitals** found:
Nurses account for only six percent of board membersPhysicians account for 20 percent of board members
Other clinicians are five percent of board members
Evidence
http://campaignforaction.org/state/virginia
Research on health care workforce is fragmented
Need data on all health professions
Improved health care workforce
data collection to better assess and project workforce
requirements
Data
http://campaignforaction.org/state/virginia
Nurses should reflect patient population in terms of gender, race and ethnicity
All nurses should provide culturally competent care
Diversity
