Abstract:
Nursing has always been a cost for the institutions within which nurses work. This fact has influenced almost everything that affects how nurses are utilized and valued. As a cost, nurses are closely managed on the margin, always constrained by the resource machinations of organizations and systems with little determination or enumeration of the contributions nurses make to the service and financial value represented by algorithms and metrics that enumerate and demonstrate nurse's impact and contribution to service and financial value. This article further pushes the boundaries of this circumstance, challenging nurse and health leaders to reconceptualize nursing contribution and recalibrate the determination and calculation of nursing value as a sustainable baseline for nursing leadership for the future.
