The IOM always has been committed to health-related education. Our work continues to explore the role of education in such areas as the training of the health care workforce, in prevention and health promotion, and in improving the quality of care. In 2008, The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) and the IOM launched a two-year initiative to respond to the need to assess and transform the nursing profession. The IOM appointed the Committee on the RWJF Initiative on the Future of Nursing, at the IOM, with the purpose of producing a report that would make recommendations for an action- oriented blueprint for the future of nursing. Through its deliberations, the committee developed four key messages: Nurses should practice to the full extent of their education and training. Nurses should achieve higher levels of education and training through an improved education system that promotes seamless academic progression. Nurses should be full partners, with physicians and other health care professionals, in redesigning health care in the United States. Effective workforce planning and policy making require better data collection and information infrastructure.  ALAHA Quality - Patient Safety Curriculum Supplements for Nursing Schools
