NURSING
Mathews JJ A b s t r a c t First-line managers (head nurses) are increasingly accountable for all aspects of nursing care delivery and resource management on a unit. However, traditional methods of training head nurses may not adequately prepare them to meet their increasing responsibilities. A structured first-line manager development program can help correct this deficiency. However, the successful implementation of such a program requires an understanding of organizational culture as well as substantive knowledge about management. This article describes how a hospital-based first-line manager development program was designed and implemented by using strategies appropriate to the values, norms, and resources within the organization.
