The enactment of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) calls for a transformation of healthcare to provide a safer, more affordable, more accessible and higher quality of healthcare. Central to these goals is high quality nursing care and practice. In 2008 the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) asked the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to become a partner to examine and consider what it would take to radically change and address the biggest issues of healthcare, cost and improved care. This ground breaking and far reaching collaborative effort resulted in the presentation in 2010 of a cohesive document “The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health”. The report focused on recommendations for improvements which include nursing’s important role in improving healthcare in America. This paper will look at the impact of the IOM 2010 report on nursing practice, nursing education and nursing leadership.

The joint initiative details 8 recommendations to remove what they determined to be existing barriers “preventing nurses from being able to respond effectively to rapidly changing health care settings” so that nurses, the largest profession in health care, are better equipped and supported in realizing the objectives of the 2010 Affordable Care Act (www.IOM.edu). IOM Recommendations Recommendation 1 Remove scope-of-practice barriers so that advanced practice nurses are able to practice to the full extent of their education and training (www.IOM.edu). This recommendation would empower nurses to be leaders in health care, working side-by-side with physicians, and promoting nursing as more than carrying out tasks ordered by physicians.

...THE FUTURE OF NURSING: LEADING CHANGE, ADVANCING HEALTH Introduction Studies show that the nursing profession cover most of the workforce in the health sector, and they are mainly served with the responsibility of acting as patients’ advocates as well as defining the care that is to be provided to ailing patients (Hamric, Spross and Hanson 21). Nurses mainly work on the frontline of patient care, and they tend to play a significant role in realizing the objectives formulated in the in the 2010 Affordable Care Act and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Initiative (RWJFI) in collaboration with the Institute of Medicine (IOM), which define the need to change and advance healthcare (Initiative on the Future of Nursing n.d). Therefore, as much as there is a need to restructure the current healthcare, it is important to first address issues that interfere with the provision of quality and evidenced healthcare. To promote changes and advance health, the IOM report recommends nurses to practice to the full extent of their education, achieve higher levels of education and training through improved education process, and nurse to be involved in decision making processes touching on healthcare (Institute of Medicine n.d).

...The Impact of the IOM Report on the Future of Nursing Marsha McGinnis Grand Canyon University Professional Dynamics NRS-430V October 13, 2013 The role of nursing today has vastly changed over the years. Additional responsibilities, growing demands of higher education, and increased job requirements have resulted in an exceptionally complex practice for the modern nurse. In order to meet these higher demands, the committee on the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation at the Institute of Medicine (IOM) published a report containing recommendations to aid and enhance the future of nursing practice. This report contains four main key points. 1. Nurses should practice to the full extent of their education and training. 2. Nurses should achieve higher levels of education and training through an improved education system that promotes seamless academic progression. 3. Nurses should be full partners, with physicians and other health care professionals, in redesigning health care in the United States. 4. Effective workforce planning and policy making require better data collection and information infrastructure (IOM (Institute of Medicine), 2011). These recommendations are essential tools that today’s nurses can use to assist in the evolution of nursing practice. Nursing education, nursing practice and leadership skills are all areas that need improvement according to the IOM report. If these improvements are achieved, nurses will be able to enrich the quality of...

...Nursing is a fast growing profession. A registered nurse is required to be capable enough to adapt to the modern techniques, equipments, and knowledge based procedure. According to the Institute of Medicine nursing is one of the biggest workforces in healthcare. By starting a transformation in the nursing field, there can be change in the healthcare industry (Committee on the Robert Wood Johnson foundation 2011). The Institute of Medicine, on October 5, 2010, released their research based report “The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health” as a recommendation to improve nursing. Nurse must be able to provide the public accessible and high quality healthcare, there needs to be a higher standard of healthcare and highly educated nurses Impact of the IOM report on nursing education The education nurses acknowledged during the twentieth century are no longer adequate enough to handle the requirements of today’s healthcare. “Nurses should achieve higher levels of education and training through an improved education system that promotes flawless academic progression.”(Institute of Medicine, 2010). As the healthcare field moves forward, technology has played a major role. As technology advance, patient needs and healthcare setting have become more complex, nurses are required to acquire higher education to deliver high-quality and safe healthcare.

...2015 The Institute of Medicine (IOM) in collaboration with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation embarked on a two-year research to produce a report that would assess nursing as a profession and make recommendation about the future of nursing. The report was completed and released in October 5, 2010 by the Institute of Medicine. The impact of this report has changed to the view and approach to nursing as a profession to meet these recommendations. Among these recommendations, nursing education was a top priority. According to the IOM, "nurses should achieve higher levels of education and training through an improved education system that promotes seamless academic progression." (IOM, 2010). Nursing care within hospital and home settings are becoming more complex and demanding for nurses. As the demands and complexity of care changes, the IOM feels that a more educated workforce would be able to meet these demands. As such, the IOM recommends that 80% of the nursing workforce possess a Bachelor in Science of Nursing (BSN) degree by the year 2020. (IOM, 21010) The formal education involved in getting a BSN ensures that nurses are getting a strong foundation in nursing science and models of care that can be effectively modified in a changing environment. In an accelerated program such as an associate degree in nursing, or a diploma in nursing, the students are mainly exposed to the basic knowledge of patient care. The IOM also addresses the future of nursing as a whole and...

...The Impact of the 2010 IOM Report on the Future of Nursing Nursing has evolved so much from its original intent. Nurses progressed from being classified as disorderlies to a well respected name in the health profession. However, even though nursing has come a long way, there are still more changes to come in relation to the shift of focus of healthcare from acute care to community health. As the US population continues to become diversified, nursing too will require adjustments to the ever-changing population. The health care system is now reforming to a prevention rather than cure model. With changes in the healthcare system and the population, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) developed a report depicting the need for nursing to be transformed in the areas of practice, education and leadership. I believe this report will have a strong impact on the future of nursing as it relates to expanding practice, furthering education and demonstrating leadership, all of which will enable a nurse to work at the maximum potential within their scope. Transforming the practice of nursing will be beneficial in its future. It will enhance quality, promote health, prevent illness, and care for people of all ages and ethnicities. One concept involved in this transformation, is providing patient-centered care in all aspects. The IOM report refers to this as nurse guided care. “The nurse providing guided care offers eight services: assessment; planning care; monitoring; coaching; chronic disease...

The document guided health care improvement by advancement of the nursing profession as the number of insured Americans rose to over 32 million in 2010 (IOM, 2011). This report has resulted in “The Future of Nursing: Campaign for Action,” whose purpose is to put into effect the proposals started by “The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health” report (Future of Nursing Campaign for Action, n.d.). The goal of most healthcare organizations is to improve nursing practice by hiring more educated nurses, as stated in the IOM’s report. This paper will discuss the impact of the IOM’s report about advancing nurse education and the role of leadership. IOM’s Report Impact on Nursing Education “Nurses should achieve high levels of education and training through an improved education system that promotes seamless academic progression” (IOM, 2011).

...Professional Development of Nursing Professionals Grand Canyon University: NRS-430V September 21, 2014 The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) in conjunction with The Institute of Medicine (IOM) began an initiative that lasted two-years, beginning in 2008 in an attempt to assess and transform the profession of nursing. The culmination of this report in 2010 left several recommendation on “The future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health”. With nurses being the majority of the healthcare workforce, they are encouraged to lead the charge on changes in the healthcare system. This report discusses the effects of safe, effective and affordable care rendered at the primary level. Nurses can further this initiative by taking their education to the next level, which will allow stronger leadership roles and in turn will lead directly to improved care at the primary level. Transforming Practice Access to healthcare has been rewritten with the implementation of The Affordable Care Act of 2010 (ACA). This will allow open access to healthcare for millions; in turn increasing demands on healthcare professionals. In keeping with IOM report, ways in which a practicing nurse can implement changes are varied; in current practice it would begin with education and prevention early in the acute care stay in order to be preemptive in post-acute care period also early in a nurse’s education familiarizing oneself with the patient care needs in under-served communities, which allows...

Patrician, PhD, RN, FAAN Douglas Oliver, DNP, RN, ACNS-BC, NE-BC Rebecca S. Miltner, PhD, RNC-OB, NEA-BC Charge nurses are untapped leadership resources that can be groomed for future advanced leadership positions in healthcare organizations. The purpose of this study was to understand the development needs for the charge nurse role. This study demonstrates they receive little or no training for assuming positions of leadership and offers suggestions for enhancement of preparation. There is growing evidence of an impending crisis in chief nursing officer (CNO) retention.1 Seventy percent of CNOs report they will change jobs or retire in the future.2 The critical need for succession planning in nursing leadership has been demonstrated, yet two-thirds of CNOs reported that they do not have succession plans in place.3 Proactive planning is clearly needed to prepare the next generation of nursing leaders.4 The 1st step in succession planning is to identify nurses to mentor and develop. Commonly, nurses in management roles are likely candidates for development; however, many organizations do not consider charge nurses candidates for advancement based on the perception of the role as more of a task master than leader.5 Martha Dawson, DNP, RN, FACHE Kathleen A.
