JCNE Blog JCNE's Efforts to Increase Baccalaureate Educated Nurses Featured in Center to Champion Nursing's Blog
The Jonas Center for Nursing Excellence is pleased to announce that we have been featured on the Center to Champion Nursing's blog. This blog post focuses on the successful Partners Investing in Nursing investments, of which the Jonas Center is a recipient, to help implement an educational tract to address the need for more nurses with a bachelor’s degree. The Jonas Center has worked with schools of nursing in New York and North Carolina to continually refine this new educational model, and early success of these efforts have resulted in future expansion of this on-going project.

The saying goes that all politics is local. But it’s even truer when it comes to the health care workforce. Every community, from large, complex cities to one stop sign rural towns, faces challenges in ensuring they have the educated and skilled health care professionals they need to provide quality health care. But their challenges are different.
That’s something that the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) and my own organization, the Northwest Health Foundation (NWHF), have known for a long time. And the RWJF and NWHF’ Partners Investing in Nursing’s Future (PIN) program capitalizes on just that, making investments for local solutions to nursing issues.
