Key stakeholders in nursing policy reform include:
- Nurses: Directly impacted by policy changes and often provide valuable insights into the practical implications of reforms. - Healthcare Organizations: Hospitals and clinics that employ nurses and will be affected by changes in staffing and practice regulations. - Government Bodies: Federal and state policymakers who enact legislation affecting healthcare. - Educational Institutions: Nursing schools and universities that prepare future nurses. - Professional Associations: Organizations like the American Nurses Association (ANA) that advocate for nursing interests.
