Nurses must prepare for and pursue leadership positions to help guide healthcare reform, including serving on governing boards where their perspective is valuable. More nurses also need to be prepared to manage healthcare systems and lead transformation efforts. The Campaign for Action works to position nurses as partners in improving healthcare by identifying leadership opportunities for nurses and encouraging their appointment to public and private boards.
Hosting an event can be a great opportunity for your Action Coalition to engage local communities, organizations, funders, and state leaders as well as to increase support to advance the work of the Future of Nursing: Campaign for Action.
We've created an event-planning toolkit to help plan and host a successful event!
In September 2013, the Future of Nursing: Campaign for Action Leadership Learning Collaborative convened a teleconference to discuss State Leadership Institutes.
This webinar discusses patient advocacy and the role of healthcare providers and patients in creating legislative change. The speakers are Regina Holliday, a patient advocate and caregiver, and Susan Hassmiller, Senior Advisor for Nursing at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Regina discusses the perspective of patients and caregivers, focusing on small details. Susan then discusses barriers to nurse practitioners' scope of practice and how to focus advocacy messaging on patients and their needs. The webinar aims to link advocacy messages to patient-centered focus.

Creatines Untold Story and How 30-Year-Old Lessons Can Shape the FutureSteve Jennings
油
Creatine burst into the public consciousness in 1992 when an investigative reporter inside the Olympic Village in Barcelona caught wind of British athletes using a product called Ergomax C150. This led to an explosion of interest in and questions about the ingredient after high-profile British athletes won multiple gold medals.
I developed Ergomax C150, working closely with the late and great Dr. Roger Harris (1944 2024), and Prof. Erik Hultman (1925 2011), the pioneering scientists behind the landmark studies of creatine and athletic performance in the early 1990s.
Thirty years on, these are the slides I used at the Sports & Active Nutrition Summit 2025 to share the story, the lessons from that time, and how and why creatine will play a pivotal role in tomorrows high-growth active nutrition and healthspan categories.

BIOMECHANICS OF THE MOVEMENT OF THE SHOULDER COMPLEX.pptxdrnidhimnd
油
The shoulder complex acts as in coordinated fashion to provide the smoothest and greatest range of motion possible of the upper limb.
Combined motion of GH and ST joint of shoulder complex helps in:
Distribution of motion between other two joints.
Maintenance of glenoid fossa in optimal position.
Maintenance of good length tension
Although some amount of glenohumeral motion may occur while the other shoulder articulations remain stabilized, movement of the humerus more commonly involves some movement at all three shoulder joints.
