Abstract
Throughout my tenure as chief nursing officer, I have had the pleasure of hearing directly from nurses about nurse-led initiatives being implemented across Canada. Nurses are often very keen to discuss innovations occurring on the front lines of care delivery. The development of the Nursing Retention Toolkit was directly informed by nurses from across the country to ensure that diverse perspectives were reflected in reconsidering the way in which we value nursing work (Health Canada 2024). One of the many goals of the Nursing Retention Toolkit is to "spark change in how we think about and value the nursing profession and build on the work others have done to improve nurses' working conditions in Canada" (Health Canada 2024: 8).
