The American Nurses Foundation’s Two-Year Impact Assessment that Joslin Insight helped conduct referenced by the U.S. Surgeon General’s Advisory on Building a Thriving Health Workforce. 

The American Nurses Foundation (the Foundation) released the findings of a new comprehensive survey of more than 11,800 nurses nationwide on workplace culture and safety as part of the Pulse on the Nation’s Nurses Survey Series. This data reveals nurses are sounding the alarm that quality care is at risk and concerns are high over a healthy and safe work environment.

Early in 2020, Joslin Insight partnered with AONL to study the pandemic’s impact on nurse leaders. Their study was the first to identify the emotional toll and need for a national effort to support nurse leaders. Their research evolved into a yearlong, three-part longitudinal study revealing challenges on staffing shortages and nurse leader well-being, and garnering attention across the country.

The American Nurses Foundation’s Two-Year Impact Assessment that Joslin Insight helped conduct featured in the Washington Post: Last year, the American Nurses Foundation and the American Nurses Association reported the results of its Covid-19 Impact Assessment Survey, which found 52% of nurses were considering leaving their jobs due to insufficient staffing, a negative impact on their personal health and well-being, and an inability for them to deliver quality care. In addition, “60% of acute care nurses report feeling burned out, and 75% report feeling stressed, frustrated, and exhausted.”

The AONL Foundation for Nursing Leadership Research and Education appointed four individuals and reappointed four members.

The study was born when Quint Studer met with leaders at Orlando Health. Like many organizations, they are piloting new and better ways to provide inpatient care. This discussion led to more discussions with healthcare leaders across the country on how they are reimagining care delivery models. These discussions, along with Quint’s conversations with ANA’s Katie Boston-Leary, PhD, prompted his new company, Healthcare Plus Solutions Group, to fund a study on new and alternative models of care.
