Abstract:
In addition to their leadership responsibilities, nurse managers must have a solid understanding of current legal trends as they relate to patient care and staff. An overview is given on links between morality, ethics, and law; legal issues related to patient falls, documentation and physician communication; and legal issues related to managing of human resources.
