American Nurses Foundation issues RFP for Reimagining Nursing Initiative

The American Nurses Foundation has issued a request for proposals for the second phase of its Reimaging Nursing Initiative.

Through the initiative, $2 million will be distributed over the course of two years to select nurse-led teams and the current Reimagining Nursing Initiative grantees across all practice settings, with a particular focus on the patient care journey.

The second phase of funding seeks to continue the momentum initiated by the Reimagining Nursing Initiative’s first round of nurse-led pilot programs to support solutions that positively transform health care through the adoption of approaches, tools, and practices that improve access, quality care, and positive patient outcomes. The grant will support nurse-led research and promote health equity and nurse well-being. With this in mind, grantees will be solicited to examine the intersection of the program’s three areas of focus including nursing education, direct reimbursement, and nurse-driven technology in order to scale and implement effective nurse-led solutions. There will be two funding categories:

Reimagining practice settings: Accepting proposals centered on the patient care journey. A total of $1.5 million is available to nurse-led teams or nurse-led interdisciplinary teams.

Reimagining areas of synergies between education, technology, and direct reimbursement: Only accepting proposals from current grantees. There is either one grant at $500,000 or two grants of $250,000 for a grantee-led interdisciplinary team.

To be eligible, applicants must be nurse-led teams or nurse-led interdisciplinary teams.
