- Education of APRNs gets $200M boost from HHS under ACA
HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced on Monday a $200 million, four-year grant program under the Affordable Care Act aimed at increasing the number of advanced practice registered nurses offering primary care. The grant to five hospitals will be used in the training of nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, nurse anesthetists and nurse midwives. "With this important initiative, we are putting more advanced practice nurses on the front lines of our health care system and further strengthening and growing our primary care workforce," Sebelius said.

The realization is prompting executives at influential companies including Facebook, Cisco and Google to advise their employees to put down their devices once in a while and engage in quiet reflection.
