Summary:Hospitals and health systems have only now started to realize the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the quality of nursing care. This analysis outlines the effects of the pandemic on nurse sensitive indicators (NSI) as described by chief nursing officers from across the nation.

Shared solutions and lessons learned through the pandemic were captured during round-table discussions with 272 executives.
