The American Nurses Association announced plans March 8 for its American Nurses Enterprise Research Council to begin a review and modernization process of its Magnet designation criteria for hospitals. Two independent experts were identified and selected by external evaluators to undertake the process of creating "Magnet 3.0" as the ANA calls it. They are: Patricia Patrician, PhD, RN, professor of nursing at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, and Sean Clarke, PhD, RN, professor of nursing leadership and executive vice dean at the New York University Rory Meyers College of Nursing.
