This new edition has been updated to reflect the current health-care environment. As in our previous editions, the content, examples, and diagrams were designed with the goal of assisting the new graduate to make the transition to professional nursing practice. The Fifth Edition of Essentials of Nursing Leadership and Management focuses on the necessary knowledge and skills needed by the staff nurse as a vital member of the health-care team and manag- er of patient care. Issues related to setting priorities, delegation, qual- ity improvement, legal parameters of nursing practice, and ethical issues were updated for this edition. We are especially excited to introduce a new chapter, Quality and Safety. This chapter focuses on the current quality and safety issues and initiatives that affect the current health-care environment. In addition, the updated finance chapter and a new chapter on health- care policy will be available on the F.A. Davis Web site, DavisPlus. We continue to bring you comprehensive, practical information on developing a nursing career. Updated information on leading, manag- ing, followership, and workplace issues continues to be included. Essentials of Nursing Leadership and Management continues to provide a strong foundation for the beginning nurse leader. We want to thank the people at F.A. Davis for their assistance as well as our contributors, reviewers, and students for their guidance and support. Diane K. Whitehead Sally A. Weiss Ruth M.
