Handbook For Nurse Management – 9780627041716

Description

Nurse managers are required to demonstrate a range of skills including budgeting, general management, leadership, knowledge of legislation, infection control, quality of care, seamless integration of technology and people management. Although they are expected to straddle both clinical and management roles, nursing education and training often favours clinical competencies.

A handbook for nurse management therefore addresses the management competencies required to support new nurse managers. A handbook for nurse management is built around the South African Nursing Council competency framework and incorporates contributions from public and private nursing institutions. A handbook for nurse management is aimed at both new and experienced nurse managers.
