Insight 22: How Investing in Nursing is Valuing Health
7 min
Why Recognizing and Investing in Nursing Is Essential to Healthcare's Future
Understanding the value of nursing care in the US requires a shift, not only in policy, but in philosophy.
In this SEE YOU NOW Insight drawn from Episode 129: Investing in Nurses! Invisible to Invaluable, Pam Cipriano, immediate past president of the International Council of Nurses and former president of the American Nurses Association, explains how U.S. healthcare economics have historically obscured the value of nursing care. She argues that this isn't just a policy problem; it's a philosophical one, and that understanding and investing in nurses is essential to building a healthier, more sustainable healthcare system, and society.
