Through the NAM<\/abbr> program, Hale will work with national leaders\u2014including the American Nurses Association (ANA<\/abbr>)\u2014to expand evidence-based strategies developed with community partners. Using a simulation learning model, her project provides student nurses with practical tools to strengthen their well-being and resilience as they navigate the demands of clinical work.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m excited to bring what we\u2019re learning here in Hawaiʻi<\/span> to a national stage, and then bring back strategies and resources that can make a real difference for our students and faculty,” Hale said. “This work is about more than measuring burnout\u2014it\u2019s about creating sustainable ways to support the well-being of the people who care for our communities every day.”<\/p>\n

By the end of the program, Hale hopes to build lasting peer-to-peer partnerships with national leaders and translate those lessons into actionable programs at 糖心视频<\/abbr>, advancing the school\u2019s mission to train the next generation of clinicians who thrive in their professional and personal lives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
