As part of the healthcare community, I found the National Academy of Medicine (NAM) and the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) setting new trends in healthcare research. Both organizations you refereed are working great at expanding research in nursing. I think the nursing profession needed such robust organizations that should raise awareness about pressing issues in nursing and healthcare, and as well as fund projects that are aimed at highlighting new findings in medicine and health-related issues. You rightly pointed towards the publications of the National Academy of Medicine (NAM), but I believe that the programs they run about Health and Nursing are equally beneficial as well. I had been through their website many times, and have explored their programs, which I found academically rich, in terms of their content ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"yzvnhKRQ","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Home n.d.)","plainCitation":"(Home n.d.)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":415,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/8reWiRZH/items/G7FE9SY5"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/8reWiRZH/items/G7FE9SY5"],"itemData":{"id":415,"type":"webpage","container-title":"National Academy of Medicine","language":"en-US","title":"Home","URL":"https://nam.edu/","accessed":{"date-parts":[["2020",1,18]]}}}],"schema":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json"} (Home n.d.). NAM had been working to highlight new trends in incubation services and it is also supporting, young nurses under a program named Emerging Leaders in Health and Medicine Program ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"VP9J78UT","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Publications n.d.)","plainCitation":"(Publications n.d.)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":417,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/8reWiRZH/items/PKE7R2DF"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/8reWiRZH/items/PKE7R2DF"],"itemData":{"id":417,"type":"post-weblog","container-title":"National Academy of Medicine","language":"en-US","title":"Publications","URL":"https://nam.edu/publications/","accessed":{"date-parts":[["2020",1,18]]}}}],"schema":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json"} (Publications n.d.).

American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) has an academically rich structure as well. The AACN works to incorporate new findings related to healthcare and nursing, which have been introduced in other parts of the world. Among the organizations related to the nursing profession, the AACN is quite different in scope. The faculty development programs of AACN like the Nursing Residency Programs and programs related to quality and safety education in nursing are extremely rich with respect to course content. I just found that between 2010 and 2014, the AACN conducted a faculty development program that was a part of the QSEN initiative at a national level ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"tKage03n","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(About AACN n.d.)","plainCitation":"(About AACN n.d.)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":418,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/8reWiRZH/items/AFHLGND2"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/8reWiRZH/items/AFHLGND2"],"itemData":{"id":418,"type":"webpage","title":"About AACN","URL":"https://www.aacnnursing.org/about-aacn","accessed":{"date-parts":[["2020",1,18]]}}}],"schema":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json"} (About AACN n.d.). They are also working on establishing weblink based learning mechanisms that will foster distance learning in healthcare. Both these organizations have changed the course of learning new concepts in nursing and health care, which is exceptional.
