Getting to the Root of Her GivingAfter six decades as a nurse, Fran Hicks, PhD, RN, FAAN, has literally given alifetime to the profession. It is not surprising the she decided to designate theprofession the beneficiary of her financial resources as well.

“As nurses, we have an obligation to ensure the future of our profession throughour commitment to students, scholars, educational institutions, and practicearenas,” she said. “I appreciate what the nursing profession, and individual studentsand colleagues have given me, and I want to honor the support I’ve received.”

Fran has returned to her roots, so to speak, by donating to educationalinstitutions that shaped her personally and professionally: Case Western ReserveUniversity’s Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing, where she was a student, andthe University of Portland, where she served as a faculty member for 25 years. “FPBprovided unique preparation for my career,” she noted, “and UP gave me supportand encouragement to move forward with my ideas and multiple programs.”

By creating an endowed fund to support an annual ANA lecture, Fran wants toprovide opportunities for other nurses to explore their ideas. “My involvement withthe American Nurses Foundation spans many years. I am acutely aware of theorganization’s credibility and the impact of its programs on individuals,” Fran said.“I selected leadership as my focus to ensure that nurses have a seat and avoice at the table wherever they are. Where I am and what I am todayis because I am a nurse.”

Fran encourages others to contribute to the goals of theFoundation. From her perspective, it is incumbent uponthose tasked with securing gifts to help potential donorsidentify the niche that they see possible for themselves.“For example, I ask potential donors to [think] back to whythey became nurses and [consider] how they can helpmove the profession forward,” she said.

At the same time, Fran recognizes that “people havedifferent means and obligations, which limit the amount offinancial support they can give; however, that does not limit theamount of support they can give.” At the root of all of Fran'sendeavors, one sentiment is constant for her: “Every nurse is a leader.That’s who we are. That’s what we do.”

“As nurses, wehave an obligationto ensure thefuture of ourprofessionthrough ourcommitment tostudents, scholars,educationalinstitutions, andpractice arenas.”

2 2017 Annual Report

Permission to Prioritize Their HealthSince its launch in May 2017, the Healthy Nurse, Healthy Nation™ Grand Challenge(Healthy Nurse) has attracted almost 26,000 participants as more nurses lead thenation’s journey to better health and living healthier lifestyles. “Healthy Nurse gavenurses permission to prioritize our own health,” said Jenell Steele, BSN, RN. “Thisinitiative reminded me that caring for my patients did not mean neglecting myself.Healthy Nurse empowered me.”

The programs and resources available to nurses participating in Healthy Nurseare made possible through partner organizations like Sodexo. In January, theAmerican Nurses Foundation announced that Sodexo had joined the Healthy NurseGrand Challenge with a contribution of $2.25 million over three years.

“Through our comprehensive suite of Quality of Life Services, Sodexo is uniquelypositioned to help ANA make a positive and lasting impact on the health and well-being of America’s nurses,” Simon Scrivens, Global Head of Marketing, SodexoHealthcare.

Sodexo’s support funds the core program and innovative pilots to help nursestake action to improve their health with a focus on two of the Healthy Nurse keyareas: nutrition and quality of life.

Much like Jenell, joining the challenge empowered Julie R. David, MSN, ARNP,

ANP-BC, and Daisy Molina, MSN-Ed, RNC-LRN, CLC, CIME, to lead healthier livesby focusing on these two key areas. For Julie, losing post-pregnancy weight andhaving the energy to exercise were her biggest health challenges. Healthy Nurseappealed to her because it uses a variety of media to promote interaction thathelped provide her a way to be accountable for her health and then to encourageothers. “It gave me the platform to share my story, inspire, and support others,”Julie said. “I had the rare opportunity to positively influence my nursing colleaguesacross the nation in their health and wellness.” In February 2018, she completedher first 10K, placing fourth in her age group.

Daisy drew inspiration from fellow challenge participants like Julie. “I think backto all the times that I neglected my body because of long hours on the job,” Daisyrecalled. “Somehow, we need to find a way to nurture ourselves within our dailylives. Reading ideas from other nurses is so inspiring, and it keeps my motivation infull swing.” After being overweight for more than 30 years, Daisy lost 70 pounds in15 months.

To other nurses looking for inspiration or permission to prioritize their health,Jenell had this to offer: “You are your most valuable asset. We do a great job ofmanaging the health outcomes of other people; you deserve that same compassion,tenacity, and attention.”
