Few professionals have a greater impact on our lives than
nurses. We often do not realize just how important a nurse
is until we need the care that only a nurse can provide. Never
have so many people needed nurses as now. The current global
shortage of nurses is so critical that Hospitals, Universities,
Human Resource firms and Government bodies around the world
have joined in efforts to solve the global nurse shortage.
In my role as a business executive, I encounter many great
visionaries and observe both efficiencies and inefficiencies
in business operations. Based upon my work within the healthcare
industry, it is painfully clear that nurses and the profession
as a whole are in crisis. Today, the nurse profession is hemorrhaging
nurses. According to the recent report of the Department of
Health and Human Services, the U.S. is heading for a pivotal
benchmark of needing 1.2 million nurses to fill vacant positions
in the year 2014. We must act immediately with precision and
focus to solve this enormous problem. It is my perspective
that a paradigm shift must occur in how nurses and nursing
are viewed if we are to stave off a deepening healthcare crisis.
To this end, I have been speaking to individuals and groups
alike in the United States and beyond on the need for a revolution
within nursing. In my book, "Solving
the Global Nurse Shortage: Social Media & The Cultural
Transformation of Nursing,"
I lay the groundwork for orchestrating a nursing revolution.
