Magnet Recognition Program

Yeah, that's where it could be pretty complicated.

And, you know, I do want to talk about Magnet, too, because of your expertise in Magnet.

And this is how we do incorporate a lot of professional governance as well.

And I was wondering, after helping organizations pursue Magnet recognition, What have you learned about creating excellence that lasts beyond the designation? I feel like this kind of ties with a lot of the topics we're discussing here.

Keeping the importance of nursing sensitive indicators and outperforming your peers front and center so that you don't worry about are we meeting, you know, as a majority of our units, the majority of the time being able to accomplish this.

I think having a culture of feedback where you're constantly creating a culture where people feel it's safe to be curious as well as safe to give suggestions or offer alternatives and bring best practice forward, bringing evidence forward.

Right.

There's so much to gain, right, from having those in place.

In the long run, this is gonna be great for, and that's more from, I guess I would say, an industry standpoint.

One, it's gonna help more hospitals get to Magnet faster.

Because Magnet requires certifications.

You can't get certified, especially certified as a nurse, until you have a few thousand hours of practice.

So now hospitals can hire nurses who are already certified right out of school.
