NCSBN series focuses on solutions to staffing, burnout and the prevention of workplace violence
From the National Council of State Boards of Nursing, InFocus magazine:
"Recognizing that U.S. health care ecosystem is at an urgent crossroads that requires health care systems, policymakers, regulators and academic leaders to put in place changes that will spur systemic evolution, NCSBN brought together experts from across the U.S. to participate in an ongoing discussion on solutions to staffing, burnout and the prevention of workplace violence. NCSBN wants these issues to remain
at the forefront of the minds of health leaders so evolutional changes can be planned and executed in the near future.
Knowing that this discussion cannot be addressed once and then be silenced, In Focus will take a deeper dive into these critical issues in a series of three feature articles over the next year. These articles will explore the issues of staffing, wellness and the prevention of workplace violence, and will offer solutions that can be replicated or modified by other health care institutions. This conversation is vital to the future of the nursing workforce and the health of the nation.
