The 2022 summit, led by Emory School of Nursing in partnership with Emory School of Business, convened national nursing, health care, and business leaders.

It shares major policy and regulatory reforms that have taken place since the summit and highlights workforce needs that will require continued attention in 2023 and beyond. Topics include issues driving nurse turnover and workforce distribution, the relationship(s) between working conditions and nursing retention, the importance of competitive nursing salaries, and the need for systems to protect resilience in nursing.
