Abstract:
The decline in managerial positions in hospitals has resulted in nurses' increased interest in management opportunities in other healthcare system sectors. This study reports the responses of 963 medical group practices to a survey of educational preferences and support mechanisms for the preparation of administrators for this type of setting. The findings raise issues for nurse managers seeking nonhospital employment and for nursing schools that have defined their educational mission as encompassing the preparation of nurse managers.
