NURSES GIVESO MUCH EVERYDAY—TO PATIENTS,FAMILIES, ANDCOMMUNITIES.FOR 60 YEARS, WEHAVE BEEN GIVINGBACK TO THEM.ANAAMERICAN NURSES ASSOCIATIONWHERE DO GIVING AND NURSING INTERSECT? Clearly, nurses give to their patients,but their giving goes so far beyond that. By sharing their expertise and passion for takingexcellent care of patients, nurses give back to their colleagues, families, friends, andcommunities.For more than 60 years, the American Nurses Foundation has provided a way for theworld to give back to nurses. We support nurses and advocate for them to lead thecharge to make health care better.Nurses play a critical role in how we live and how we die. Patients and families expresstheir deep gratitude in heartfelt ways, like delivering cookies or flowers to a hospital unitor office.The Foundation offers the opportunity to thank nurses on a wider scale and with a lastingimpact. Our programs enable nurses to use their knowledge about patients’ needs toinfluence and improve how hospitals operate. We strive to make health policy morepatient-focused and encourage nurses across the country to develop and implement newand better ways of caring for patients and their families.Now is the time to give back to nurses. It is time for those of us who have experiencedoutstanding nursing care and want it to be available to everyone. It is time for those ofus who benefit every day from what nurses do to promote health and protect patients. Itis time for those of us who believe the nursing profession is the ultimate combination ofart and science, skill and commitment. We must invest in nursing at a scale that matchesthe profound contributions nurses have already made to health care—and the colossalpotential they have to make an even greater impact.Kate JudgeMarla J. WestonTim Porter-O’GradyExecutive DirectorChief Executive OfficerChair, Board of Trustees

60 Years of Giving KnowledgeA WO R LD OF IN QUIRYWHEN THERESA M. DAVIS, PhD, RN, NE-BC, found herself at her father’s bedsideduring his final days, she wished there was something more she could do to makehim comfortable. Even her medical knowledge as an experienced critical care nursefelt inadequate.It was an admittedly sad situation, butone that propelled Davis into a line ofresearch that eventually spanned fiveintensive care units (ICUs)—and is nowpoised to launch into still new areas ofmedicine.The Healing TouchWith an American Nurses CredentialingCenter Clinical Nursing Research Grantfunded through the Foundation, Daviskicked off an investigation of HealingTouch Therapy at Virginia’s Inova HealthSystem. Healing Touch is a noninvasivecomplementary therapy in which anurse gently touches or hovers the handover certain areas of the body in orderto produce calming energy.Davis and her team found thatwhen Healing Touch was added tothe advanced critical care typicallyadministered in the ICU, it led tosignificant improvements in certain vitalsigns as well as reductions in patients’levels of pain and anxiety.New FrontiersIn light of her initial findings, Davisbegan to wonder: if Healing Touchcan help patients in the ICU, who elsecan it help? Next, she plans to expandher investigation to new fields suchas orthopedics, addiction, labor anddelivery, oncology, and end-of-life care.Patients aren’t the only ones benefitingfrom Healing Touch research. Davisand her team have enriched colleagueswith their knowledge by giving awardwinning poster presentations atresearch and safety conferences.“Nursing is all about evidence-basedpractice, and nurses need to beinvolved in creating the evidence,” Davissays. “Immersing yourself in a world ofinquiry not only improves outcomesand the patient experience. It createsa healthier and more rewarding workenvironment.”A N E W PA R A D I G M F O RCO L L A B O R ATI O NMAKING HEALTH CARE BETTER. It’s a mission shared by the Foundation andStryker Corporation, a medical technology company that has partnered with theFoundation since 2013 on a growing number of initiatives.“We value the partnership betweenthe worlds of nursing and industryand believe the professional blendingof perspectives can lead to a newparadigm for collaboration,” saysCynthia Sylvia, MSc, MA, RN, CWON,Clinical Sciences Manager at StrykerMedical. “Exchanging expertise with theFoundation enables us to be strongertogether.”From leadership to research,visibility to philanthropy, Strykeris a vital collaborator across theFoundation’s pursuits to elevatenursing.

We lookforward to sharing their stories with you infuture publications.develop and inspire positive changes innursing.An Essential AllianceIn Stryker’s view, this active partnershipwith the ANA Enterprise is not achoice—it’s a necessity.“We feel that the future of health care isliterally in the hands of nursing,” Sylviasays. “If our support can be instrumentalin assisting nurses to be full partners inthe redesign of health care, then now isthe time to do just that.”As one of the founding members of theFoundation’s Corporate Advisory Board,Stryker engages in a productive dialoguewith other thought leaders in order to“Groundbreaking research on topicssuch as Healing Touch Therapy is oneof the inspiring initiatives that keep usinvolved with the ANA Enterprise, and theFoundation in particular.”—Cynthia Sylvia, Clinical Sciences Manager, Stryker Medical4AMERICAN NURSES FOUNDATION 2015 ANNUAL REPORT 5

60 Years Of Giving SupportEXT END IN G A LEGACYAS A FORMER FOUNDATION CHAIR, Norma Lang, PhD, RN, FAAN, FRCN, oncesought donations. Now she joins the ranks of endowment donors through herplanned gift.On most Foundation gift documentsdated 1994 to 1996, you’ll find the neatand concise signature of Norma Lang.Her John Hancock matches her focusedleadership style and the powerfuldirectness with which she talks aboutthe importance of nursing. In fact,Lang’s passion and matter-of-factapproach led her to secure more gifts ofendowment in her two-year tenure thanany Foundation chair before her.Throughout her career and especiallywhile Foundation chair, Lang hasadvocated for long-term investmentin nursing knowledge and research—apriority shared by donors such as MaryTilbury, Eleanor Lambertson, Rita Chow,and Yaye Togasaki-Breitenbach. Each ofthese women believed that research bynurses is critical to the profession andto patients.Committing to QualityTwenty years after her time as Foundationchair, Lang’s signature will once againappear on an intention to create anendowment, but this time on anotherline—that of the donor. Through herestate planning, she will establishthe Norma and Glenn Lang EndowedResearch Fund to ensure nurses canexplore new ways to improve careand health. One of the creators of theAmerican Nurses Association’s NationalDatabase on Nursing Quality Indicators,Lang has chosen nursing quality as herfund’s focus.“It is vital that we encourage new ideasand ways of doing things, and test themto truly know what makes a difference,”Lang says. “I know that nurses ofthe future will need resources toadvance nursing. The American NursesFoundation was created for today’s andtomorrow’s nurses.”A lifelong proponent of qualityassurance in nursing, Lang believesthat nurses should lead health centersand play a major role in shaping healthpolicy. Lang’s funds will now enableother nurses to take up her torch forgenerations to come.To learn more about how you cancreate a living legacy for nursing,contact Elizabeth Franzino, Directorof Development, at 301-628-5305 orelizabeth.franzino@ana.org.To Date . . .1,000 5M nursing scholars supportedwith research grants6Inspiring Nurses,Inspired CausesNurses like Norma Lang, who establishendowments to support nursingresearch, move nursing forward evenbeyond the span of their pioneeringcareers.A former Foundation president, EleanorC. Lambertsen, EdD, RN, DSc (Hon.),(1916–1998) developed the concept of“team nursing,” which revolutionizedhealth care by placing registerednurses in the primary interdisciplinaryleadership role. In 1993, she establishedthe Eleanor C. Lambertsen ScholarFund to support recipients of theFoundation’s Nursing Research GrantsProgram.Mary S. Tilbury, EdD, RN, CNAA-BC,was instrumental in the developmentof the Magnet Recognition Program .Later in her career, she became thefirst RN to serve on Sinai Hospital ofBaltimore’s board of directors. In honorof her parents, Tilbury established theSayre Memorial Scholar Fund for nurseresearchers studying patient care andleadership/management interactions.Rita Chow, EdD, RN, AHN-BC, FNGNA,FAAN, cared for patients at a prisonhospital, a Sioux reservation, thenation’s last leprosy facility, and on thefront lines as a member of the US ArmyNurse Corps. To carry through her visionof a future with more collaborative,patient-centered, and holistic care,she cofounded the Chow-TogasakiBreitenbach Endowment with her latefriend Yaye Togasaki-Breitenbach inorder to provide unrestricted fundingfor graduate and postdoctoral nursingresearch studies.granted to nursing researchAMERICAN NURSES FOUNDATION 2015 ANNUAL REPORT 7

60 Years of Giving StrengthF R O M BEDSIDE TO BOA R D R OOMN U R S E O N A B OA R D :L I Z A N N E F O N TA I N EElevating Nurses to New Levels of LeadershipDESPITE BEING AT THE SIDE OF PATIENTS during their most difficult moments, nurses are often absent from the boardroom,where major conversations regarding patient care, wellness, and health policy take place. To put nurses at the center ofthese important discussions, the American Nurses Foundation undertakes several initiatives to elevate nurses into leadershippositions and amplify their voices in the healthcare decision-making process.Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer, MorrisHeights Health Center, The Bronx, NYBOARD APPOINTMENTSCo-vice chair, Board of Trustees, The BrooklynHospital CenterTrustee, Rita & Alex Hillman FoundationBoard Resume WorkshopsNurses on Boards ProfilesNurses on Boards CoalitionThanks to support from the Rita andAlex Hillman Foundation, the AmericanNurses Foundation piloted a workshopat the 2015 ANCC National MagnetConference on how to create a boardresume, a critical element for nursesstriving to serve on a board of directors.More than 35 participants learned howto extract highlights from their lengthycurricula vitae and hone them into aconcise document for board nominatingcommittees, recruiters, and nonacademicians. The session was so wellreceived that it is rapidly becoming aconference staple.To learn about how nurses can influenceimportant healthcare decisions—andwhy they should—the Foundationprofiles nurse leaders across thecountry who have forged the path tothe boardroom. On the opposite page,read about what motivates LizanneFontaine, JD, BSN, RN, to devote hertime to serving on three boards.A generous grant from the RobertWood Johnson Foundation has enabledthe American Nurses Foundation tohost the Nurses on Boards Coalitionsince 2015. To date, the Coalition isnearly a quarter of the way towardits goal of improving the health ofcommunities nationwide by ensuring10,000 or more nurses serve oncorporate and nonprofit health boardsby 2020.Member and former chair, Board of Trustees,BRICEDUCATIONJD, New York University School of LawBSN, New York University Division of NursingAs a nurse, what do you bring to boardservice that you feel is valuable anddemonstrates the importance of havingnurses in positions of influence?I am the first nurse to serve on BrooklynHospital’s board, even though it isBrooklyn’s oldest hospital. Thanks tomy experience with patient care, I amable to convey the patient perspectivewhen it comes to decisions about thehospital. I think my service has alsobeen validating for the hospital’s nurses,who make up its largest group ofemployees.Nurses possess an ability to thinkbeyond one particular patient to thebroader impact that patient care andthe patient experience have on children,families, and communities. Nurses arealso engaged, consistent, and skilled atusing time efficiently—other traits thatare key in board service.if you have a connection to a boardmember. Start the conversation byconveying that you’d like to understandthe organization better and learn moreabout how to get involved.Many organizations have committeesthat are open to non-board members.These can be a great way to getinvolved, potentially leading to newboard opportunities and connectingyou with a circle of people who canrecommend you for board service.Boards are always looking for freshtalent, insights, and perspectives.What advice would you offer to othernurses about the value of boardservice?You will find you are good at it. It willbe enjoyable and help you fly the flagfor the profession a little higher. Nursesin board leadership roles are a greatreminder of the incredible power of ourprofession.Board service is an opportunity tosee many of the same challenges yougrapple with professionally from a newperspective, and to advocate for othernurses. What you bring to a boardwill be informed by your professionallife and vice versa. I would encouragenurses who are interested and have thetime to look for opportunities for boardservice.How would you suggest nurses seekout and prepare for board service?Research organizations that interest youand their current board members.

60 Years of Giving RecognitionH O NO R ING N URSES, ST R EN GT HEN I N G N U R SI N GON HER FIRST VISIT to the ANCC National Magnet Conference , Julia Warner, BSN, RN, CWON, felt as though she had steppedinto the nursing Olympics. She was struck by the positive and celebratory atmosphere, and excited to use what she had learnedfrom the field’s very best nurses. She also learned something unexpected: how easy it is to honor an outstanding nurse.With a modest donation to Honor aNurse, an American Nurses Foundationprogram sponsored exclusively byWolters Kluwer and its LippincottSolutions software suite, Warnernominated her colleague and director,Jackie Collavo, MA, BSN, RN, NE-BC, forthe Foundation’s 2015 Nurse of the Year.She was overjoyed—but not surprised—when Collavo earned the top honor.A Devoted ColleagueFrom the moment Warner arrived atPittsburgh’s West Penn/AlleghenyHealth Network in 2012, she wasimpressed by Collavo’s unwaveringdedication to putting the patient firstand mentoring her colleagues—evenwhen that means working a 70- or 80hour week.“Jackie has 14 departments reportingto her, and she will still take the time tosit with a new nurse who is struggling,”Warner says. “She is always recognizingeveryone around her. It was time for herto be recognized.”When Collavo found out she had beenchosen as Nurse of the Year, she toldWarner, “This is not about me. It’s aboutall the people who work here and workso hard every day to make this a cultureof excellence.”Likewise, the Honor a Nurse programis not only about recognizing superiornurses. Because proceeds supportnursing research, scholarships, andprograms, it improves the field atlarge—a goal Warner takes seriously.To submit a donation in honor of a nurse, visitwww.givetonursing.org/honoranurse.A Call To Action“Nursing is more than a profession.It’s a calling,” Warner says. “We needmore nurses every day to provide carein homes, hospitals, nursing homes,schools, and the community. We neednurses representing us and changingpolicy in Washington and at regulatoryagencies and CMS.”It’s a tall order, but the motivation that callsnurses is simple, Warner says. “All youhave to be able to do is care for people.”A nurse for more than 30 years, Collavodirects nursing operations and theMagnet Recognition Program at WestPenn Hospital. Under her leadership,West Penn became Pittsburgh’sfirst hospital to receive the Magnet designation for nursing excellence, in2006. It has since received a secondMagnet designation and is currently inthe process of seeking its third.10Jackie Collavo, 2015 Nurse of the YearAMERICAN NURSES FOUNDATION 2015 ANNUAL REPORT 11
