Stanford Nursing’s Commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging
At Stanford Medicine, we are committed to recognizing and celebrating the diversity within our nursing workforce. This diversity is crucial for fostering a culture of belonging for both our patients and employees and for enhancing the quality of care we provide.
In support of this commitment, the Office of the Chief Nurse Executive (CNE), through the Nursing Excellence Department, is proudly sponsoring initial memberships for the following professional organizations:
- Stanford Medicine Black Nurses Association (SMBNA)
- National Association of Hispanic Nurses (NAHN)
- Philippine Nurses Association of Northern California - SHC Subchapter (PNANC-Stanford )
- Bay Area Indian Nurses Association (BAINA)
This initiative is a key part of our broader efforts to promote diversity, inclusion, and health equity, aligning with the National Academy of Medicine’s Future of Nursing 2020-2030 and our strategic priorities.
We are honored to recognize Stanford’s pioneering role in establishing professional organizations that are crucial for cultivating diverse nursing communities and ensuring that our workforce reflects and meets the needs of our varied patient population.
