“…As part of our APS, a new position [Research and Innovation Lead Scholar in Residence Nursing and Health Disciplines] was created and filled in 2018. This lead was accountable for developing an evidence‐informed conceptual framework (Science of Care) and a road map for scholarship, research and innovation described in another publication (Ackerman et al, 2021). The incumbent is a founding member of the ILC and in x's Science of Care research and innovation framework situated fundamental care as the nexus of integrated caring, safety and symptom science as the WHAT and implementation [getting the evidence to and testing out at the bedside/point of care], improvement [ideating solutions to identified problems using design thinking] and team [working together with patients and care partners] science as the HOW (x).…”

Aim: This manuscript aims to provide a discursive description of how one academic health care centre is enculturating, embedding and investing in the fundamental care framework and lessons learned that can serve as a blueprint for other organizations. Background:A call to action to focus on fundamental care is not new as the initial Fundamentals of Care (FoC) Framework has been evolving over the last decade through efforts lead by the International Learning Collaborative (ILC). Now more than ever, there is a pressing need for leaders to influence a humane, compassionate evidence-informed approach to the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond by embedding an FoC framework and focusing on fundamental care as part of their academic mandate and daily care practices.Design: This discursive paper delineates an evolving and ongoing enculturation, embeddedness and investment in advancing fundamental care as part of a larger academic practice strategy and quality improvement plan that is evidence-informed and collaborative in nature. Method:The action framework (value, talk, do, own and research fundamental care) developed by ILC guides efforts to how the FoC framework was embedded into one academic health science centre's strategic directions, academic practice strategy, professional practice model, quality plan and research and innovation platform. Conclusion:An overview of how we leveraged the FoC and ILC Leadership frameworks in our efforts to enculturate, embed and invest in advancing fundamental care and lessons learned that may inform other healthcare organizations in their efforts.Impact on nursing science, practice or disciplinary knowledge: Underpinning all of our efforts is the integral value we place on fundamental care to guide how we practice, educate and learn, discover and innovate and lead at x. We shared how we value, talk, do, own and research fundamental care by having it embedded into our strategic directions, academic practice strategy, professional practice model, quality aims and research and innovation platform.

“…and consider "what matters most" questions that establish and deepen connections with their teams. When connections are established, the ability to adopt an innovation framework, 27 such as design thinking, can enhance evidence-and practice-based transformation. Involving nurse leaders and frontline teams to design and implement practice changes conveys value and a sense of inclusion and belonging, which helps to streamline the adoption of innovation and change.…”

A culture of inquiry has not traditionally been associated with nursing leadership. As healthcare evolves, leaders must reevaluate barriers to improving healthcare outcomes. One noted barrier has been a need for more inquisitiveness to innovate. Through an American Organization for Nursing Leadership workgroup, the authors advanced the understanding of a “culture of inquiry,” applying a practice-based learning approach for knowledge development. Three recommended foundational elements are psychological safety, building connections, and using design thinking at all organizational levels.

“…Innovation science aims to understand, anticipate, and influence the development of new products and services, whilst interpreting the meaning that the intended audience ascribes to products in a determined sociocultural context (Edwards, 2018). The innovation process involves diverse actors and sources of knowledge that collectively focus on creating new ideas and use of ideas in new ways to solve problems and co‐create value with end‐users (Ackerman, et al, 2021; Edwards, 2018). In addition to a socio‐cultural lens, the nature of innovation is evolving from innovation for economic productivity to innovation for sustainability and from risky innovation to socially responsible innovation (Edwards, 2018).…”

“…Citizen science is an evolving practice whereby volunteers from the public sphere are engaged in research activities and crowd science refers to research done in an open and collaborative fashion (Beck et al, 2022). Particularly nurses, who are natural innovators, can draw from innovation science to guide their efforts to create novel solutions to unresolved problems around the fundamental patient and care partner needs (Ackerman, et al, 2021) and engage them as citizen scientists.…”

Aims: This manuscript aims to provide a description of an evidence-informed Science of Care practice-based research and innovation framework that may serve as a guiding framework to generate new discoveries and knowledge around fundamental care in a more integrated manner. Background: New ways of thinking about models of care and implementation strategies in transdisciplinary teams are required to accelerate inquiry and embed new knowledge and innovation into practice settings. A new way of thinking starts with an explicit articulation and commitment to the core business of the healthcare industry which is to provide quality fundamental care. Design: This discursive paper delineates an iteratively derived Science of Care research and innovation framework (Science of Care Framework) that draws from a targeted literature review. Method: The Science of Care Framework integrates caring science with safety and symptom sciences with implementation, improvement, innovation and team sciences. Each science dimension is described in terms of seminal and evolving evidence and theoretical explanations, focusing on how these disciplines can support fundamental care. Conclusions: The Science of Care Framework can serve as a catalyst to guide future efforts to propel new knowledge and discoveries around fundamental care and how best to implement it into clinical practice through a transdisciplinary lens. Impact on nursing science, practice, or disciplinary knowledge: The Science of Care Framework can accelerate nursing discipline-specific knowledge generation alongside inter and transdisciplinary insights. The novel articulation of the Science of CareFramework can be used to guide further inquiries that are co-designed, and led, by nurses into integrated models of care and innovations in clinical practice.
