Reseña del editor

Increasingly, nurses have to perform managerial work in addition to direct patient care. Basic training does not prepare them for this - a fact which more and more recognize with growing concern. "The Essentials of Nursing Management" is a series designed to solve this problem, and to allay managerial anxieties. It is aimed at nurses and midwives in the hospital in the community and in education, who already have to shoulder some managerial responsibilities, or who are starting post-basic courses or managerial and supervisory skills courses. It enables readers to improve their managerial skills and techniques and their understanding of what constitutes sound management practice. The six books in the series cover the full range of those management issues of greatest relevance to nurses. Each chapter covers an important sub-topic in a standard way: presentation of a common problem, an outline of objectives and how to fulfil them; presentation of a case study or exercise for the reader's own solution, followed by guidance and pointers towards a solution from the author; and a summary with references and suggestions for further reading.
