1:20 PM PANEL DISCUSSION: EXPLORING REGISTERED NURSE PRESCRIBING: THE PATHWAY TO EQUITY & EFFICIENCY

The introduction of registered nurse prescribing represents one of the most transformative changes in nursing practice in decades. This shift has the potential to ease pressure on an overstretched health system, improve equity of access and deliver measurable productivity gains. But with new opportunities come new responsibilities; join leaders from across the health system to explore the far-reaching implications of nurse prescribing, the opportunities it unlocks for both patients and practitioners, and the critical steps needed to make it a success. 

  • How nurse prescribing will transform access, equity, and efficiency across healthcare 

  • The role of nurse leadership in embedding prescribing safely and sustainably 

  • The broader workforce and policy shifts required to support this change
