The Future of Nursing in Illinois a Review of IOM Initiatives in Our State

RWJF/IOM Future of Nursing Advance education transformation. We need to prepare our nursing workforce

RWJF/IOM Future of Nursing Advance education transformation. We need to prepare our nursing workforce for the future by strengthening education and training. Remove barriers to practice and care. We need to expand access to care by maximizing the use of nurses and modernizing outdated policies that prevent nurses from practicing to the full level of their education and training. Leverage nursing leadership. We need to prepare the next generation of nurses to meet the health care needs of people, their families, and the communities where they live and to position nurses to lead system change. Promote diversity. We need to recruit and prepare the nursing profession to provide culturally competent care in a variety of settings to an aging and more ethnically diverse population with more chronic illnesses. Foster interprofessional collaboration. We need to promote a team-based approach to education and practice to improve the quality and coordination of health care. 37
