Six Steps to Effective Management, 4
Description
To deliver care effectively, and to be able to influence health strategy, practice, and policy, nurses must be able to access a tool-kit
of management skills and knowledge. In the context of today's health services, these will guide practitioners to be able to be proactive
in their influence on business and policy decisions which directly affect their work. Soft management roles such as case management or
people management are often accepted as a part of the job: other skills such as budget management and business planning are much more
threatening yet equally vital to the effective and equitable delivery of care.
Audience
All practising nurses at or aspiring to middle management position (D&E grades) in all settings including hospitals, community, private
and independent sectors
Students taking management certificates and diplomas
Third year students on diploma courses (management
now a compulsory module)
