The United States has some of the poorest health outcomes. Health disparities run deep, leaving many people without equal opportunity or access to care. As long-time advocates for health equity, nurses are in unique positions to address the root causes of poor health, reduce health disparities, and improve the health and well-being of the nation.
In this 8-part series from the National Academy of Medicine, we explore practical strategies for the nursing profession to advance health equity. We’ll hear stories and experiences of frontline nurses and other health experts from a wide range of settings. These strategies reflect the recommendations from the report The Future of Nursing 2020-2030: Charting a Path to Achieve Health Equity.
If you’re a nurse, involved in any health sector, or want to know how to create a better future for all Americans through improved health outcomes, this podcast is for you.

Nurses have substantial expertise that can help more people access high quality care. But often, nurses across the nation are restricted from practicing to the full scope of their education and training.
Removing barriers to nursing scope of practice is critical to advancing health equity. In this episode, we hear stories from advanced practice nurses who were sometimes not allowed to practice at the top of their education and training. They, along with other health experts, share how they responded, how these barriers impact health outcomes, and how they can be removed. We also explore how valuing nurses’ contributions through reformed payment systems allows nurses to further address health inequities.
