Organizational Strategies To Address Our Nation’s Nursing Crisis



Staffing shortages, unprecedented stress, and mounting burnout are just a few of the acute challenges facing the nursing workforce, all exacerbated by two-plus years of the pandemic. During this important panel discussion moderated by Gaurdia Banister, PhD, RN, NEA-BC, FAAN, executive director of the Institute for Patient Care and Director of the Yvonne L. Munn Center for Nursing Research at Massachusetts General Hospital, we’ll hear from four national nursing leaders: Mary Joy Garcia-Dia, DNP, RN, FAAN, president of the Philippine Nurses Association of America; Allison Nordberg, PMP, program director at the American Nurses Foundation; Bernadette Mazurek Melnyk, PhD, APRN-CNP, FAANP, FNAP, FAAN, vice president for Health Promotion, university chief wellness officer and dean, College of Nursing at The Ohio State University; and Deb Zimmerman, DNP, RN, NEA-BC, FAAN, CEO of the Daisy Foundation.

During this webinar we’ll discuss the impact of shortages and potential staffing solutions, how we can cultivate the psychological and physical safety our nurses need in the clinical workplace, how inclusion can support innovation and problem-solving, and why work-life balance matters for mental health and well-being. The discussion will be followed by an interactive Q&A.
