IOM report, The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health: milestones and challenges in expanding nursing science.

摘要

The Institute of Medicine's (IOM, 2011) report, The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health, was released October 5, 2010. The report represents a significant milestone for health care, demonstrating the depth, breadth, and sophistication of nursing science. Nursing's collective body of work withstood the rigors of independent IOM reviewers. The Future of Nursing recommendations, like those in all IOM reports, reflect an evidence-based context, and they set forth evidence-based directions for how nursing and nursing research can best serve the public. Research in Nursing & Health (RINAH) is one example of an important scientific dissemination channel.
