Making the case for virtual nursing: What leaders measure and why


Monday, March 23rd, 2026 | 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM CT

Hybrid nursing programs are gaining momentum, but securing alignment across nursing, finance and operations remains a persistent challenge.

In this webinar, senior healthcare leaders discuss how to build durable business cases for virtual nursing programs and secure buy-in from executive teams and front-line leaders. The conversation explores how organizations can objectively evaluate vendors, define meaningful success metrics and demonstrate ROI that extends beyond virtual nurse productivity alone.

Insights include:
 
  • Staffing models, budget neutrality and both qualitative and quantitative performance measures
  • How leaders assess impact on bedside workload, nurse burnout and retention
  • Practical guidance for framing value, addressing stakeholder concerns and moving hybrid nursing initiatives from proposal to approval
