Nursing has the answer to the many problems that plague our health system. Raise the Voice: Edge Runners are the practical innovators who have led the way in bringing new thinking and new methods to a wide range of health care challenges. Edge Runners have developed care models and interventions that demonstrate significant, sustained clinical and financial outcomes. Many of the stories underscore the courage and fighting spirit of nurse leaders who have persevered despite institutional inertia or resistance.
Since the beginning of the Raise the Voice campaign, the Academy has identified 50 Edge Runners. Informational profiles are linked below.
