Issues and trends in nursing service administration education.

The Council on Graduate Education for Administration in Nursing (CGEAN) was established to further the development and improvement of graduate education for administration in nursing. The Council seeks to identify the nature and direction of education for administration in nursing in various healthcare systems, providing guidelines for programs offering administration. A major goal of CGEAN is facilitating dialogue between nursing service administrators and graduate level educators who are engaged in teaching and research related to administration in nursing. This column, sponsored by members of the Council, will analyze and respond to position statements and trends related to the delivery of health services and graduate education for administrators in nursing.

Collective bargaining in the service setting: a survey of faculty attitudes.

Collective bargaining activity by nurses is a fairly recent event in the health care industry and labor-management relations. This article reports the findings of an exploratory study designed to identify the attitudes of baccalaureate nursing faculty toward collective bargaining in the service setting. The project is based on the premise that faculty attitudes are a fundamental factor in shaping the views of future practitioners. The attitude of faculty was found, at best, conditional. Consensus is lacking in such areas as professionalization vs. unionization and in feelings about the use of the strike.

Evaluation of fiscal and treatment outcomes in major joint replacement.

The market demand for major arthroplasty procedures is increasing. This descriptive comparative study was conducted to examine clinical and fiscal outcomes in total joint arthroplasty patients discharged either to home or to a subacute unit. The post-acute care setting was self-selected by patients after information was provided on both options. The Self-Administered Joint Rating Questionnaire served as the primary data collection tool. Age, health status, and living alone were significant factors in post-acute care site selection. Although there were no significant differences in clinical outcomes between the two groups, overall costs were substantially different. Opportunities to maintain outcome status, while reducing total costs, in the subacute group are discussed.
