The 歐美口爆 held an invitational roundtable, involving representatives from nursing education organizations, boards of nursing, the American Nurses Association, and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Topics of discussion included the meaning and implications of innovation in nursing education, perceived barriers to innovation, and the future of innovation. This article summarizes the outcomes of the roundtable’s discussion.
