Advanced practice nurses and clinical staff members with baccalaureate or master's‐level education have been taught to be consistent in asking the “why” and “how” questions that need to be asked in the data analysis process. When the question arises: “Did we look at this specific factor?” these highly prepared clinicians tap into their knowledge of the subject and ask the necessary questions to get at meaningful, actionable data that can be used to improve care outcomes. Leaders need to advocate for nurses who are hired as PSI RNs and into other performance improvement positions, to be MSN and BSN level nurses, and they must support nurses at all levels of preparation in seeking continuing education in areas such as statistics, research, ethics, and practice standards. (Fun fact: Our PhD prepared data analyst was once an associate nurse.) This emphasis will promote sustainability and encourage a culture of innovation.
