Science Adds Value for Everyone (SAVE) is the Academy’s comprehensive initiative to demonstrate the value and impact of nursing science to policymakers and the public. Nursing science – the science of care – transforms how care is delivered at the bedside, in homes, schools, and communities. SAVE communicates why nursing science is critical to improving the health and well-being of countless lives, and how cuts to federal research agencies that support nursing science have devastating consequences to everyone’s health. 

SAVE aims to amplify nursing science by collecting and promoting powerful testimonials from nurse scientists about the outcomes resulting from their research, forging and strengthening partnerships with the scientific and patient advocacy community, and hosting in-person and virtual events to educate policymakers, scientists, and the public about the value of nursing science. SAVE will reinforce how strong support for nursing science yields real-world and cutting-edge advancements that improve quality, reduce costs, and impacts the public health.
