Kelly Vana's nursing leadership and management

Vana, Patricia Kelly, 1941- (editor.). Tazbir, Janice, (editor.).

Summary: "Nurses are committed to safe, high quality, patient-centered care. Nurses demonstrate Leadership and Management skills in the provision of patient care both interdependently with physicians and other members of the inter-professional team, and independently as nursing professionals. Vari-ous theories about Leadership and Management have been developed, as discussed in Chapter 1 of this text. These Leadership and Management theories are utilized by nurses in their personal life and from Day 1 of their clinical nursing practice. Millions of Americans turn to nurses for delivery of primary health care services, health care education. and health advice and counsel-ing. The Gallup Poll (2018) has consistently found the nursing profession to be ranked as the Number One trusted profession in its annual polls of Americans. Suzanne Gordon is a journalist who has been writing about nursing issues since 1986." --
