Moving the New York State Research Agenda forward: the stakeholder is you!
Health care is more diverse than it has ever been. The point of care can be rural or urban, inpatient or outpatient, individual or community-focused. In this challenging, ever-changing environment, it is critical for nurses to have access to nursing research on the best way to provide care. The New York State Nursing Research Agenda was launched in 2001 as an ongoing action plan to facilitate the conduct, dissemination, and utilization of nursing research in New York. This article describes several initiatives that have been launched to implement that plan. Strategies for local and regional initiatives are outlined. Key to the success of these initiatives is the involvement of nurses at all levels of practice and in all healthcare arenas. All nurses are stakeholders because this is our science and our profession.
