" (Grossman & Valiga, p. 165)
The text goes on to assert that the creation of such an environment should be at least in part facilitated by the establishment of open lines of communication. here nurses feel free to voice concerns, express positions based on professional experience and contribute to courses of treatment, feelings of morale and therefore performance levels are both likely to be higher. Therefore, the use of networking as a way of improving the multidirectional nature of communication is tantamount to helping reverse some of the negative personnel experiences demonstrated by the surveys.

As with networking, which calls for the improvement of professional lines of communication, we consider a more personal way of connecting with personnel as well. Developing Relationships is a critical part of helping to improve outcomes and experiences amongst nursing professionals. It is incumbent upon nurse leaders in this context to cultivate a sense of personal…...

The purpose of the work.

The purpose of the work was to report results of a study testing Kanter's theory by examining relationships of structural empowerment, leader -- member exchange (LMX) quality and nurses' participation in personal knowledge transfer.

A summary of its content

The study results support Kanter's theory and the relationship between structural empowerment, LMX and nurses' participation in transfer of personal knowledge. The study concludes that health-care organizations should implement and promote policies for nurses' positive work environments so they feel empowered to transfer personal knowledge. It also concludes that nurse leaders should have relationships empowering knowledge transfer in keeping with professional standards.

Nursing leadership has a direct impact on patient outcomes and quality of care. From healthcare administration to policy decisions, from shift leadership and staff management, leadership is the cornerstone of nursing. Nurses and nurse educators are paying more attention to leadership, as research consistently shows how specific leadership styles and strategies impact specific patient outcome variables. For example, Wong, Cummings & Ducharme (2013) performed a systematic review of the literature and found that leadership is linked most directly to five categories of patient outcomes including patient satisfaction, mortality rates, adverse events, complications, and healthcare utilization. Therefore, strategic leadership is critical for the provision of effective patient care. Strong leadership creates the type of healthcare environment that is most conducive to quality of care delivery. Factors like operational organization and procedural efficiency are directly linked to leadership (Wong, Cummings & Ducharme, 2013). Likewise, staff management styles will also have a strong bearing…...

Finally, it appears from this interview subject's input into this project that she is a competent and effective nursing leader, largely by virtue of her description of her supervisory and administrative style and inclination. However, her input lacked any substantial data on the basis of which a reviewer could evaluate her effectiveness as a clinical leader more specifically. Those particular skill sets may occur in combination but they undoubtedly also occur individually within different leaders (Stanley & Sherratt, 2010). A review of historical literature (such as in connection with Florence Nightingale) clearly demonstrates that good nursing leaders may or may not necessarily also be equally good clinical leaders (Stanley &…...

It has been shown through research to be critical that the organization make the provision of support for the nursing staff in terms of their education and provisioning career support as well through making time and financial allocations to provide the necessary support system in which the nursing staff may advance their education and hence their career.

Nursing Leaderships Role: 'Key' Factors in Organizational Analysis

leadership is a theory, developed by Paul Hersey and Ken Blanchard, that argues "successful leaders should change their leadership styles based on the maturity of the people they're leading and the details of the task" (MindTools, 2014). This contrasts with most views prevailing in leadership scholarship, which tend to argue that leaders will have one leadership style. The underlying argument that Hersey and Blanchard are making is that in this world, there are so many different situations that arise that a single leader with just one leadership style will never be as effective as a leader who can adapt his/her style to suit the situation.
According to the Hersey-Blanchard situational leadership theory, there are four main leadership styles -- telling, selling, participating and delegating. These are then applied to four different maturity levels. The authors argue that at the lowest maturity level, the leader needs to focus on telling/directing, and…...

Mentorship in Nursing Leadership and the Effects of Evidence-Based Practice: An Integrated Literature eview
Nursing leadership has been identified as a major contributor to the outcomes of the organization, the nurses, and the patients. Mentoring in nursing leadership has been shown to be critical in the development and sustenance of nursing leadership (Wallen et al., 2010; Stetler et al., 2014). In addition, mentoring in nursing leadership and evidence-based practice (EBP) is an explicit method that is conscientious in the delivery of healthcare services as it incorporates the best evidence from research studies. However, research on the effectiveness of EBP regarding leadership in nursing is limited, as most of the focus has been on institutionalized EBP. This research therefore is an integrated literature review with the aim of establishing and identifying the status and the effects of EBP in nursing leadership.

Mentorship in Nursing Leadership and the Effects of Evidence-Based Practice: An Integrated Literature eview.

Background of the problem/gap;

The integration of evidence-based into clinical practice in relation to knowledge derived from research has been a complicated process despite the increased interest in evidence-based practice (Sandstrom et al., 2011).

ecent literature in relation to supervision of nurses indicates that nurses value mentorship opportunities because they help in developing practice (Andrews & Wallis, 1999).

While integration of evidence-based practice into clinical nursing practice helps in enhancing the quality of nursing care, nurse managers and administrators' behaviors play a crucial role in this integration process (Gifford et al., 2007).

Even though many studies have been centered on the obstacles and facilitators to integrating evidence-based practice, these researchers are not linked explicitly to frameworks for continuous quality improvement (Solomons & Spross, 2011).

Nursing Theories Practices
Nursing Theories

Sister Callista oy initiated the Adaptation Model of Nursing in 1976. The theory has since then evolved to be one of the prominent nursing theories. The nursing theory defines and explains the nursing care provisions. The model by oy sees an individual as a composite of systems with an interrelationship (including biological, social, and psychological). According to Haaf (2008), a person strives towards retaining a balance across the systems and the outside world, although absolute balance levels do not exist. Individuals work towards living in unique bands that they can adequately cope. The model has four major concepts of environment, person, nursing, and health and its application has six steps.

According to Kraszeski & McEwen (2010), a person is a representation of societal standards, principles, or focus. oy's model positions the individual as the bio-psychosocial being throughout a continually changing environment. The person allows for open and adaptive…...

Problem Identification

The problem identified concerns about patient safety and satisfaction arising out of shortage in nurse staffing. In the contemporary times, staffing has become a major issue concerning nurses, generally, and in this paper we attend to the issue in outpatient clinical settings. This problem of under-staffing of nurses has assumed significant importance and needs to urgent attention, as it has an influence on the satisfaction of the patients and more significantly their safety. An outpatient clinic cannot run if the patients have no desire or wish to go there. In addition, it becomes hazardous in risking the lives of the patients. The purpose of this research is to research the cause of understaffing on outpatient clinics together with the influences it has on patient safety and care. Additionally, the project encompasses examining the perspective of the existing personnel…...

Paths to Nursing Leadership" by Bondas (2006). This qualitative study attempted to determine the motivations behind nurses entering nursing leadership programs and for seeking out jobs in management positions in healthcare. This study was also a component of a research program in nursing leadership as a whole and of evidence-based care. One of the fundamental pillars of the study as a whole has to do with the belief that nursing has not spent enough time or attention in the development of nursing leadership to benefit patient care. Bondas also asserts that there simply isn't enough research on the motives of nurses and their reasons for dedicating themselves to a career in nursing and to nursing leadership as a whole. Bondas does a sufficient job of setting a case for the fact that nursing leadership can make a consistent and positive impact on patient care. Bondas also aptly illuminates how…...

At least 38 cases can be positively associated with exposure at the clinic, while another 35 may be associated. As acting Nurse Manager, I have been assigned the task of developing a strategy for dealing with this situation. The following will discuss the issues and policies involved in effectively dealing either the current situation and developing a plan to prevent future similar events from occurring.

This issue is multifaceted and there are several elements to consider when dealing with the issue. The first concern is the safety of the infected patients. The second is that there many be possible violations of Federal laws involved. The third issue is to analyze the situation from a management standpoint…...
