Nurse-Sensitive Indicators (NSI) SIG
Nurse-Sensitive Indicators (NSIs) assess, evaluate, and articulate the value of ambulatory care nursing. NSIs are considered critical to the mission and vision of AAACN and essential to role acceptance and utilization for leaders, policy makers, and nursing advocates at governmental, organizational, and practice levels.
As patients and families in ambulatory care settings often need care coordination, transition management, health promotion, and access to community resources, the role of the RN as a leader in this setting is increasingly vital.
The NSI SIG serves to provide information and resources to AAACN members, facilitate conversations, and keep this important topic at the forefront.
