Imagination and Ideas Give Nurses Solutions

Imagination and Ideas Give Nurses Solutions

Imagination, Ideas, and Solutions


As nurses, we have solutions to problems in health care, and we need to step out to own our solutions without fear. Sometimes to help us maintain a feeling of control, our task-oriented mindset and checklists take priority over solving problems and helping other people. This limits our imagination, but if we let go of this mindset it will help us connect with our creativity and help us embrace the solutions we offer. Imagination contributes to ideas, and creating time for imagination can help you create solutions that can bring change not only in your corporate career but also in your business and personal life. 

Join the conversation with your host, Nena Hart, as she shares more about ideas and imagination and how you can turn your task list off and embrace your idea list through imagination. Ideas come from imagination, and success is the process of turning an idea into creative marketable solutions.
