Description
The best-selling leadership and management text available for nursing education programs, Leadership Roles and Management Functions in Nursing: Theory and Application, 11th Edition, combines the latest evidence-based content and a proven experiential approach to prepare students for success as they join today’s professional nursing workforce. Robust coverage and hundreds of active learning exercises help students overcome a lack of real-world leadership experience and meet the demands of today’s challenging, ever-changing healthcare system. From managing conflict and working collaboratively to organizing patient care and staffing, students vicariously experience the responsibilities of mid- and top-level nursing managers and hone their critical-thinking, problem-solving, and clinical decision-making skills before entering high-stakes clinical settings. The updated 11th Edition reflects the most current practices and clinical priorities in nursing leadership and management, including updated coverage of supply chain management, academic integrity as an ethical issue, healthcare reform, ransomware attacks on healthcare organizations, workplace violence, and drug diversion/reentry to work as part of substance use disorder in nursing. An array of accompanying student and instructor resources helps you make the most of your course and ensure students’ success throughout their nursing education.
