The COVID-19 pandemic emphasizes the importance of nursing care globally. Nurses are the frontline staff in the care of individuals stricken with this highly infectious and deadly illness. Nurse leaders must advocate for nursing staff when staff are immersed in often overwhelming conditions. Through a case study, this article outlines how one healthcare system's Chief Nursing Officer council worked collaboratively, jointly and with the Emergency Incident Command Structure, to operationalize CDC guidelines and support, protect, educate, and empower staff. These initiatives resulted in creative solutions, technological advances for the system, and nursing staff and leaders rising to the challenge.
新冠疫情凸显了全球护理工作的重要性。护士是照顾感染这种高传染性致命疾病患者的一线工作人员。当护理人员置身于往往令人应接不暇的环境中时，护士长必须为他们发声。通过一个案例研究，本文概述了一个医疗系统的首席护理官委员会如何与应急事件指挥结构协同合作，将美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）的指导方针付诸实践，并为工作人员提供支持、保护、教育和赋能。这些举措带来了创新性的解决方案、系统的技术进步，以及护理人员和领导者应对挑战的能力提升。
