“Through that process, we identifid key aspects of
nursing practice for the future: more community-based,
more technology-enabled, consumers at the center of
care with professionals supporting their health goals,”
Young said.
The Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing and UC Davis
Health System are actively engaged in implementing
the eight recommendations of the IOM report. Just
one month following the October 2010 publication of
the report, UC Davis Health System convened a lively
discussion, with more than 150 engaged stakeholders
attending in person and another 300 joining the
conversation via web conference. The result of the
conference was the development of the California
Action Coalition, one of fie groups at that time to
pilot action in each of their states. Today, there are 36
statewide action coalitions leading the overall initiative.
