Ward sisters' views of the effect of NHS changes
Article Abstract:
Recent research has looked at the impact of changes which have taken place in the NHS over recent years on the working lives of G-grade ward managers. It was found that many ward managers believe that the changes have led to improvements, but that further improvements would take place if charge nurses were to be given more training to deal with their new responsibilities. Respondents also highlighted the need to assess areas for professional development.
