ABOUT US
POWER UP NURSING is a national movement to improve the well-being and lifestyle of professional nurses. Led by nurses and anchored by nurse-centric corporations, healthcare facilities, and professional organizations, POWER UP NURSING makes an impact with
-
POWER UP conferences, training workshops, travel, and online courses,
-
a POWER UP PLATFORM (website) with ongoing education,

e-commerce (products and resources which support nurses),
-
POWER UP blog, podcast, social media, and digital newsletter.
Our mission is to alleviate stress, pain, and disease for nurses and the people they care for.
​
The core of our work in 2023-24 will focus on providing on-site and online experiences with other nurses that bring balance, well-being, and renewed energy. We will bring delight and motivation back to the practice of nursing from the bedside, to the community, to the support of nurse entrepreneurs.
“Power Up” is not just a theme but a commitment to cultivating limitless nurse self-efficacy that will transform healthcare and our world.
