AARP: national champions of nursing for consumers.
The focus of AARP's Future of Nursing Campaign for Action is on fundamental transformation of the health care delivery system in America for consumers. AARP strongly supports full utilization of the education and training of all health professionals and workers. AARP supports educational progression and lifelong learning, a more diversified workforce, and a culture of true partnership and engagement with patients and their families to achieve better health. It is essential for nurses to build synergistic alliances with powerful groups who share the goal of health system transformation. AARP will continue to enhance effective methods to build coalitions, communicate in messages targeted to different stakeholder audiences, develop "asks," and sustain reciprocal relationships.
