Nurses are the largest sector of the healthcare workforce – the backbone of the healthcare system - yet the least invested in and the least technologized.
M7 is changing that.
The last three years have highlighted how critical nurses are to the health of our communities. Amid a record nursing shortage, health systems must make the nursing role more sustainable and attractive to sustain a strong workforce that meets their patients’ needs.
M7 is the technological layer health systems depend on to unlock the operational and organizational changes that the modern nurse demands.
