Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purposes of this project were to identify innovations conceived from nurse faculty at a college of nursing and nurses in an academic medical center, examine their characteristics, and create a typology of nursing innovations. BACKGROUND Innovation is a crucial component for progress in healthcare. Jobs to Be Done Theory suggests that to make progress in nursing, workers must be solution focused to answer problems. METHODS This qualitative study used directed content analysis to evaluate survey responses of nurses in 1 university's academic and practice setting about solutions or innovations to achieve progress in their jobs. RESULTS Fifty-seven examples of situations needing an innovative solution were coded and categorized by challenges to yield an 8 characteristic typology in nursing innovation. CONCLUSIONS These findings serve as a guide for nurse executives to understand and leverage how innovations are conceptualized and translated in academia and practice.
