"I'm just happy that nurse well-being was addressed in this way," says Summer Bryant, DNP, RN, CMSRN, and current AMSN president. For her, top takeaways included the "call to work together, with multisector partnerships, to go outside the hospital and to partner in the community."
Now is a great time for the industry and others to value nurses' contributions as revenue creators instead of an expense and "not just a line item," she says. It's about actually changing the value of nurses, the way they're seen and respected, with more power and legitimacy.
"As long as we continue to treat nursing as a cost center—and a large cost for most institutions—we will never get to some of the change we need," says Terri Hinkley, EdD, MBA, BScN, CAE, and AMSN chief executive officer.
