    Journal of Nursing Administration, 2021
    Co-Authors: Jean Dowling Dols, Monica N Ramirez, Ashley D Hernandez, David B Allen, Theresa Kloewer, Virginia Aguillon
    Abstract:

    OBJECTIVE This research study was designed to analyze the impact of an evidence-based Charge Nurse (CN) education program on novice and experienced CNs' self-confidence and satisfaction with the role, skill competencies, and nursing metrics. BACKGROUND Charge Nurses are critical to effective daily unit operations. However, executive nursing leadership found that unit performance varied by CN despite experience. METHODS University faculty partnering with Nurse leaders developed an evidence-based CN education program including a series of classes, coaching in skills and role responsibilities by Nurse leaders, and evaluation of skills competencies before and after the CN education program. RESULTS The CN program was associated with significant positive changes in CN performance, Nurse-specific metrics, hospital-acquired events, and patient satisfaction. CONCLUSIONS Interventions targeting frontline leaders positively impact CN performance.

  • longitudinal Charge Nurse leadership development and evaluation
    Journal of Nursing Administration, 2013
    Co-Authors: Mary Krugman, Laura Heggem, Lisa Judd Kinney, Margaret Frueh
    Abstract:

    OBJECTIVE The study's aim was to examine longitudinal outcomes of a leadership program for permanent and relief Charge Nurse from 1996 to 2012 using action research and Kouzes and Posner's The Leadership Challenge conceptual frameworks. BACKGROUND Charge Nurses hold significant oversight of patient safety, quality, and team functioning. This study contributes knowledge regarding Charge Nurse leadership and organization outcomes associated with these essential roles over time. METHODS Data were collected over 6 time periods using Kouzes and Posner's The Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI) and internally developed action research tools. Surveys were aligned with leadership and work environment changes to examine outcomes. RESULTS Charge Nurse leadership LPI mean ratings improved. Relief Charge Nurses reached similar LPI outcomes by 2012, with no statistical differences in mean or domain scores. Action research methods facilitated executive decision making during change processes. Demographics shifted with younger Charge Nurses with less practice experience serving as Charge Nurses in the most recent years. CONCLUSIONS Charge Nurse leadership reported significant gains despite institutional changes and uneven delivery of educational interventions.
