Purpose

Continue development and testing of a Nursing Value Model, with respect to a broad definition of value. The workgroup explores value in reference to nursing with quantitative metrics such as cost and available resources; also, more holistic and qualitative metrics related to values such as caring, engagement, connectedness, and spirituality. The workgroup will employ artificial intelligence methodologies to further define the application of nursing value/values in service to health and health care.
