Abstract:
As a central partner in the business of the hospital, the nurse manager's focus is on the delivery of high-quality care resulting in desired clinical outcomes at controlled costs. These outcomes require a partnership for patient care. Nurse managers develop and empower staff; forge collaborative and team relationships within nursing and with other disciplines and departments; and help to transform the hospital culture. Roles, responsibilities, educational preparation and experience requirements are discussed as well as the significance of collaborating with other healthcare members.
