Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first practical guide for nurses on how to incorporate the knowledge, skills, and tools of Strength-Based Nursing Care (SBC) into everyday practice. The text, based on a model developed by the McGill University Nursing Program, signifies a paradigm shift from a deficit-based model to one that focuses on individual, family, and community strengths as a cornerstone of effective nursing care. The book develops the theoretical foundations underlying SBC, promotes the acquisition of fundamental skills needed for SBC practice, and offers specific strategies, techniques, and tools for identifying strengths and harnessing them to facilitate healing and health. The testimony of 46 nurses demonstrates how SBC can be effectively used in multiple settings across the lifespan.
Download or read book The Future of Nursing written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-02-08 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of Nursing explores how nurses' roles, responsibilities, and education should change significantly to meet the increased demand for care that will be created by health care reform and to advance improvements in America's increasingly complex health system. At more than 3 million in number, nurses make up the single largest segment of the health care work force. They also spend the greatest amount of time in delivering patient care as a profession. Nurses therefore have valuable insights and unique abilities to contribute as partners with other health care professionals in improving the quality and safety of care as envisioned in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) enacted this year. Nurses should be fully engaged with other health professionals and assume leadership roles in redesigning care in the United States. To ensure its members are well-prepared, the profession should institute residency training for nurses, increase the percentage of nurses who attain a bachelor's degree to 80 percent by 2020, and double the number who pursue doctorates. Furthermore, regulatory and institutional obstacles-including limits on nurses' scope of practice-should be removed so that the health system can reap the full benefit of nurses' training, skills, and knowledge in patient care. In this book, the Institute of Medicine makes recommendations for an action-oriented blueprint for the future of nursing.
Download or read book Effects of Transformational Leadership on Nurses Job Satisfaction and Retention written by Katrina Daae and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's evolving health care system, effective nursing leadership is crucial to the advancement of the nursing profession. The style of management and leadership behaviors have been shown to affect work environments, including the level of nurse job satisfaction and nurse turnover rates. Increasing body of evidence shows that many nurses perceive being unsupported by nursing leaders, with complaints ranging from feeling undervalued and disempowered to hostile communication behaviors. Decreased level of nurse job satisfaction can have many detrimental consequences, including burnout, disengagement, poorer performance, and increased turnover rates, all of which compromise the ability of health care organizations to provide safe and effective patient care. Because the level of job satisfaction among staff nurses has been shown to affect patient outcomes, knowing what improves the level of satisfaction is significant in any health care organization. Therefore, there is an obvious need for health care organizations to undergo transformation by redefining effective leadership attributes and functions as well as education about and development of leadership skills and behaviors. The transformational leadership approach has been shown to have a positive impact on job satisfaction of staff nurses, resulting in improved relationships between staff nurses and managers and a strong desire to maintain membership in the organization. Leaders who use this approach have been shown to create healthy working environments that foster staff nurse trust in management, which has an impact on both the quality of nurses09́ work life and the quality of patient care. This proposal will include an implementation plan for the integration of transformational leadership in the current work flow health carehcare organization by way of increasing awareness of transformational leadership qualities and attributes among staff nurses work flowe managers.

Download or read book Leadership in Health Care written by Jill Barr and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2012-02-21 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leadership in Health Care has established itself as an authoritative yet accessible resource for nursing and professions allied to health. Students -as well as professional leaders working in practice - who need a clear and engaging guide to the key theories and practice skills required for effective leadership in health care will benefit from this text. Now revised and updated into a second edition, the book retains its successful approach of looking at leadership theory from an individual, team and organisational perspective, and continues to focus on major areas such as problem solving, dealing with conflict, unhealthy behaviours and notions of quality, diversity and individual values. This new edition, however, responds to recent political changes in health care with the inclusion of two new chapters on interprofessional working and on emotional intelligence. The authors have also taken the opportunity to focus more clearly on service users, and take forward the concept of project management. The book's ability to bridge the gap between theory, research and practice is one of the reasons why it is so highly-regarded. To strengthen this key feature, more case studies, activities and self-evaluation exercises have been integrated into the existing range of practical material so that readers have further opportunities to analyse their own self-knowledge and leadership skills.

Download or read book Leader Behaviors of Nurse Executives and Their Nurse Managers written by Kathy Lamphere and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Nurse managers are replacing the traditional head nurse and nursing supervisor in today's acute care hospitals. Described as "wonders in action" these nurse managers often perform the duties of clinical experts, business managers, and administrators of multiple units or programs. While it is clear that nurse managers learn clinical skills through formal education programs and day-to-day nursing practice, it is less clear how they learn the leadership skills necessary for their roles. A synthesis of nursing research suggests that nurse managers may role model the leader behaviors of their nurse executives. Using a descriptive comparative design, 22 acute care nurse executive/nurse manager sets from three Pacific northwest states completed a demographic questionnaire and the Leader Effectiveness Adaptability Description - Self (LEAD-S) (Hersey & Blanchard, 1988). Data analysis showed that the dominant leadership style of the nurse executives was Participating. The dominant leadership style of the nurse managers was Selling. Both of these styles emphasize high relationship behaviors. Thirty-eight percent of the variation in nurse manager leader effectiveness scores was explained by their nurse executives' leader effectiveness scores (p =
