The decade ahead will test the nation's nearly 4 million nurses in
new and complex ways. Nurses live and work at the intersection of
health, education, and communities. Nurses work in a wide array of
settings and practice at a range of professional levels. They are
often the first and most frequent line of contact with people of
all backgrounds and experiences seeking care and they represent the
largest of the health care professions. A nation cannot fully
thrive until everyone - no matter who they are, where they live, or
how much money they make - can live their healthiest possible life,
and helping people live their healthiest life is and has always
been the essential role of nurses. Nurses have a critical role to
play in achieving the goal of health equity, but they need robust
education, supportive work environments, and autonomy. Accordingly,
at the request of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, on behalf of
the National Academy of Medicine, an ad hoc committee under the
auspices of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and
Medicine conducted a study aimed at envisioning and charting a path
forward for the nursing profession to help reduce inequities in
people's ability to achieve their full health potential. The
ultimate goal is the achievement of health equity in the United
States built on strengthened nursing capacity and expertise. By
leveraging these attributes, nursing will help to create and
contribute comprehensively to equitable public health and health
care systems that are designed to work for everyone. The Future of
Nursing 2020-2030: Charting a Path to Achieve Health Equity
explores how nurses can work to reduce health disparities and
promote equity, while keeping costs at bay, utilizing technology,
and maintaining patient and family-focused care into 2030. This
work builds on the foundation set out by The Future of Nursing:
