Although innovation is typically viewed by healthcare and academic institutions, business leaders, entrepreneurs, and private corporations as necessary for continuous improvement, high-quality care, and scientific advancement, barriers in creating and sustaining innovative academic environments abound and require effective leadership to overcome them. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to describe the major barriers and facilitators to innovation in colleges of nursing and healthcare professions along with recommendations for creating a culture of innovation in these academic environments. In addition, key strategies for educational innovation are discussed. Innovations launched by the Arizona State University College of Nursing & Healthcare Innovation are highlighted to provide examples of how a college that established innovation as a top priority in 2005 in its strategic plan created an innovative culture that has led to several successful outcomes.
尽管医疗保健机构、学术机构、企业领导者、企业家和私人公司通常认为创新对于持续改进、高质量护理和科学进步是必要的，但在创建和维持创新的学术环境方面存在诸多障碍，需要有效的领导力来克服这些障碍。因此，本文的目的是描述护理学院和医疗保健专业创新的主要障碍和促进因素，并提出在这些学术环境中营造创新文化的建议。此外，还讨论了教育创新的关键策略。文中重点介绍了亚利桑那州立大学护理与医疗保健创新学院发起的创新举措，以举例说明一所于2005年在其战略计划中将创新列为首要任务的学院是如何营造创新文化并取得多项成功成果的。
