Symposium Presentation

Abstract

This presentation will describe the current availability of capacity building resources, pointing to ways of leveraging existing national resources and adding the nursing perspective. The panel’s consensus strategies will be outlined. Panelists will engage the broad base of nurse scholars in attendance to further delineate strategies. Recommendations will be solicited regarding implementation science theories, methods, and strategies that inform practice change and implementation science research through a nursing lens. The session will be summarized with a focus on the next bold steps to increase nursing capacity and influence on implementation science in research and practice.

Description

Overall Symposium Summary: A panel of Implementation Science experts developed strategies to expand nursing leadership, research, and practice in Translational Science. This symposium will (1) highlight the need to integrate nursing perspectives into implementation science and (2) engage nurse scholars in refining strategies for leveraging national resources in healthcare transformation. Recommendations on theories, methods, and strategies for practice change and research through a nursing lens will be sought.
