CNO Report Protect the Nurse, Protect the Practice – Effective Communication Is the Foundation for Keeping Nurses Safe

  • Surge staffing, training, and reallocation (54%)
  • Emotional health and well-being of staff (50%)
  • Access to personal protective equipment and other supplies (47%)

  3. Reducing the stress of crisis care
  4. Enabling smooth movement from novice to expert and back
