Created for nursing students in the third or fourth year of their undergraduate BScN program, Nursing Leadership and Management provides a truly Canadian introduction to theory and practice with an emphasis on the key skills employed by successful nurse leaders.
Built on the authors' practical experience, this textbook equips students to supervise and work effectively with direct and indirect reports in clinical settings. Canadian examples are utilized to coach readers in thinking critically, delegating successfully, improving quality, communicating effectively, and building teams. The challenges which nurses and health care organizations face are identified throughout the book, and the text encourages the next generation of nurses to find positive solutions to issues such as handling conflict, leading change, workplace burnout, and much more. Four main themes frame the contents of this text: patient safety; communication in leadership and management; critical thinking; and research.
