Abstract

Nurses are regarded as the cornerstone of the healthcare system, playing a vital role as primary caregivers and patient advocates. Their unique position enables them to identify inefficiencies and highlight areas for improvement, making them key drivers of innovation and entrepreneurship in healthcare. As the healthcare landscape rapidly evolves, it is crucial to cultivate environments that empower nurses to leverage their expertise and lead systemic change, with an emphasis on patient-centered care and health equity. This case study offers a reflective discussion on how nurse leaders and researchers can utilize the core professional values of nursing to promote a culture of creativity and innovation within institutions of higher education and healthcare organizations.
