Nurse executives and the National Priorities Partnership: transforming America's healthcare.

摘要

The National Priorities Partnership (NPP) is an effort initiated by the National Quality Forum (NQF), in response to requests from the Department of Health and Human Services, to provide feedback into plans articulating a National Quality Strategy that will transform healthcare in America. Supported in part by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), the NPP now involves 48 major national organir zations that, collectively, influence all parts of the healthcare system. The American Nurses Association (ANA), represented by the ANA chief executive officer, is one of the 48 partners, as is the more recently formed Nursing Alliance for Quality Care.
