“…The strength of the eigenvalue confirms the importance of the relationship between decision making and ethical principles [75], the need for strong leadership in working groups [76] and communication as a fundamental element in conflict resolution [77]. By comparing the core competencies emerging from our research with the most relevant international studies into core competencies for nurse managers, we would find a shared factor with communication, which should indeed be presented as a shared factor [25,78,79]. The communication ability that would be expected from the nurse manager should include the ability to convey critical thinking and generate reflection in nurse teams prior to action [36].…”

“…The American Institute of Medicine, in its report entitled "The future of nursing: leading change in health", already identified nursing in 2010 as a key player in critical decision making and in the transformation of healthcare [24]. In the same way, Weber et al [25] and McClaringan et al [20] express themselves by stating that nursing is fundamental to the implementation of shared governance, because their commitment and participation is essential for the sustainability and improvement of health. Panayotou et al [26] emphasizes nursing within strategic plans, so that their key actions are focused on the creation of a culture of good practice.…”

Nurses who are capable of developing their competencies appropriately in the field of management are considered fundamental to the sustainability and improvement of health outcomes. These core competencies are the critical competencies to be developed in specific areas. There are different core competencies for nurse managers, but none in the Spanish health system. The objective of this research is to identify the core competencies needed for nurse managers in the Spanish health system. The research was carried out using the Delphi method to reach a consensus on the core competencies and a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to determine construct validity, reducing the dimensionality of a dataset by finding the causes of variability in the set and organizing them by importance. A panel of 50 experts in management and healthcare engaged in a four-round Delphi study with Likert scored surveys. We identified eight core competencies from an initial list of 51: decision making, relationship management, communication skills, listening, Leadership, conflict management, ethical principles, collaboration and team management skills. PCA indicated the structural validity of the core competencies by saturation into three components (α Cronbach >0.613): communication, leadership and decision making. The research shows that eight competencies must be developed by the nursing managers in the Spanish health system. Nurse managers can use these core competencies as criteria to develop and plan their professional career. These core competencies can serve as a guideline for the design of nurse managers’ development programs in Spain.

“…Albagawi et al (2017), show in their study that there is a need to develop leadership behaviors that are proven effective in implementing positive and adaptive behaviors among nurse leaders. Weber, Ward, & Walsh, (2015), successfully implemented a transformational leadership curriculum to help support a successful transition of nurses to nursing managers providing a framework to strengthen their overall nursing department. Buck & Doucette, 2015 also found that with transformational leadership practiced in their Chief Nursing Officers it created a collaborative, civil, and healthy environment with better patient outcomes.…”

The nursing shortage and high turnover rates are a problem in the United States. The purpose of this multiple case study was to explore leadership strategies that hospital senior nurse managers in the Rocky Mountain States use to improve nurse retention. Participants were 6 hospital senior nurse managers including 3 chief nursing officers, 1 assistant chief nursing officer, and 2 directors who had demonstrated effective leadership strategies in retention of nurses. The leadership-motivated excellence theory was the conceptual framework. Semi structured interviews with open-ended interview questions were used to collect data; organization websites and documents were used to help corroborate evidence for triangulation. Data were analyzed using Yin's data analysis method. The major themes were leadership and retention strategies. The leadership strategies were senior nurse managers guiding, coaching, and mentoring registered nurses, and the retention strategies were tools used to motivate and retain registered nurses. The results may bring about positive social change by providing hospitals with leadership strategies to retain nurses. Improved retention rates of registered nurses may enhance the competitive advantage for hospitals by improving patient satisfaction scores and improving care. This improvement may result in increased hospital reimbursements and may influence organizational commitment to improving patient outcomes.

“…A liderança em enfermagem desempenha um papel central nos cuidados de qualidade ao cliente, o qual envolve quatro atividades fundamentais: facilitar a comunicação contínua eficaz; fortalecimento das relações intra e interprofissionais; construção e manutenção de equipas e envolvimento dos pares (Carvalho & Lucas, 2020). A liderança influencia o APE (Lucas & Nunes, 2020;Weber, Ward & Walsh, 2015) e a QCE (Carvalho & Lucas, 2020). Os enfermeiros, enquanto líderes, são fundamentais para melhorarem a comunicação com e entre a equipa para alcançarem objetivos, tendo como finalidade a qualidade dos cuidados, a segurança do cliente e a inovação em saúde (Carvalho & Lucas, 2020;Nunes & Gaspar, 2016).…”

Resumo: O contexto de trabalho onde os enfermeiros prestam cuidados desempenha um papel relevante nos resultados para o cliente e para os enfermeiros e respetivas equipas. As diferentes características do Ambiente de Prática em Enfermagem (APE) são importantes na construção de estratégias de gestão para a promoção de APE favoráveis, que por consequentemente contribuem para a melhoria contínua da Qualidade dos Cuidados em Enfermagem. Objetivos: examinar a evidência científica acerca do APE em contexto hospitalar. Métodos: Revisão integrativa, com 6 etapas: 1) identificação da pergunta de pesquisa; 2) definição das palavras-chave; 3) definição das informações a serem extraídas dos estudos selecionados; 4) avaliação dos estudos incluídos na revisão; 5) interpretação dos resultados; 6) apresentação da revisão/síntese do conhecimento. Os estudos selecionados foram no período entre 2015 e 2020. Resultados: Foram incluídos 26 artigos; a grande maioria relatou achados do ambiente de prática de enfermagem e resultados para os enfermeiros, para os enfermeiros gerentes, para os clientes e para a eficácia das organizações, em contexto hospitalar. Conclusões: Melhorar o ambiente de prática de enfermagem tem consequências na qualidade dos cuidados de enfermagem, com aumento de resultados para a enfermagem, os clientes e o contexto hospitalar.
