摘要:

As the structure of healthcare institutions changes, nurse administrators frequently are being called on to lead interdisciplinary programs. To be successful in this new health paradigm, teams must strive to create total stakeholder satisfaction by adopting a mindset that work is interdependent, not independent, and then striving to work synergistically. The author presents 12 themes that emerged from a study investigating the essential elements of synergistic team relationships.

摘要:

Production processes and service delivery in acute care hospitals can be fragmented. Inpatient case management has the potential to improve both processes and outcomes of hospital care. The author reports on 18 research studies that used inpatient case management as the treatment variable. These outcome studies, using case management, did not provide the evidence needed to address deficiencies in inpatient settings. However, these studies do provide clear direction for nurse administrators and nurse researchers to take concerning the next steps needed to address this critical issue.

摘要:

Although managerial partnerships are becoming more common in healthcare organizations, very little is available in the literature regarding a practical, concrete methodology for ensuring success of the relationship. The authors explore the nature of managerial partnerships and the perils and pitfalls of forming these relationships. Experiences from successful and failing partnerships will be used to identify the essential elements of healthy partnerships. Key steps and principles for creating a successful partnership are identified.

摘要:

Avenues for the preparation of nurses who wish to pursue administrative careers continue to be debated. The author reports changes in the numbers and enrollments of master of science in nursing/master of business administration(MSN/MBA) programs as well as trends in MSN in nursing administration programs since 1993. Respondents to a survey of all U.S. nursing graduate programs indicated that both types of programs have undergone substantial changes on a variety of measures. The author considers these results in suggestions for building new approaches to administrative preparation.
