From the Paper:
"Because nursing involves direct care of vulnerable patients and responsibilities for their medical health, any leadership or management structure must provide a formal hierarchy sufficient to eliminate role conflicts between staff members with different levels of authority. Likewise, because interpersonal and role conflicts among staff members at the same level of authority could potentially jeopardize patient health and welfare, the nursing profession also requires sufficient supervisory oversight and management. Furthermore, the necessity of ensuring technical competence and operational efficiency requires continual objective performance assessment within the hierarchical structure."Sample of Sources Used:
