Chief Nursing Officer (CNO) Forum

As C-suite nursing executives, these individuals are involved in all aspects of shaping the future of their respective healthcare institutions.

The accountability of their role is immense, ranging from daily difficult decision-making around budgeting, high-quality patient care metrics and outcomes, improving patient experience measures, preventing workplace harm, and fostering a culture that increases staff engagement. Beyond this, the CNO is expected to be well-versed with both local and national healthcare laws and policies. Panelists included:
