At UHealth, nurses are empowered to extend critical thinking beyond the bedside, challenging the status quo to enhance care delivery and improve patient outcomes, ensuring our work is disseminated across the country in various settings.

Supported by unit base practice councils, quality and research councils, and an overall pursuit of inquiry, nurses have the opportunity and a voice to influence practice decisions, advance research, and implement change in alignment with our mission and strategic priorities.

Through shared governance, engagement in professional organizations, continuing education, and nurse-led research, our nurses strengthen teams, improve health outcomes, and amplify a culture of caring across the communities we serve.

“Our nursing leaders have created an environment where nurses feel supported, valued, and inspired to do their best work. When caregivers are empowered to grow and lead, patients feel the difference. That spirit of compassion and excellence is reflected in the exceptional care delivered every day, at every stage of the health journey.”
