Nursing Leadership, Building the Future

By

This session is sponsored by Sigma Theta Tau and presented by Joyce M. Knestrick, PhD, CRNP, FAANP, FAAN.

As healthcare continues to change, nurse practitioners (NPs) are well suited to be the “movers and shakers” to impact policy and health reforms. As nurse leaders, NPs bring experiences to improve social determinants of health and are often the voice of the diverse patients they serve. The removal of barriers to practice in federal and state legislation and local health systems are only part of the breaking down barriers. Readiness to meet the challenges comes after reflection on personal self and the profession.
