The advancement of nursing leadership relies on the recognition and promotion of nursing leaders at all levels of practice. Leadership happens at the front-line face to face with patients. It happens in Case Management, Quality, Education, Informatics, Executive Offices and in numerous other roles and various environments.
 
The TONL Spotlight this month recognizes two nurse leaders recommended by their respective TONL Chapter Presidents, Dr. Christi Nguyen, NCONL, and Dr. Kit Bredemis, PBONL. 
The TNA/TONL collaborative HIT Committee completed a Statewide Study on Nurses' experience using electronic health records in 2015 and 2020 to examine the satisfaction of nurses across Texas with the electronic health record. TONL members now have access to the reports published on 10/21/21 on the TNA website page. The TONL HIT Committee representatives (N. Crider, C. Plonien, V. Brockman, and E.Sjoberg) encourage TONL members to read, share and utilize the information found in the reports to improve the use of EHR's in the practice of nursing and the care of patients.
