Leadership in nursing homes-2009: challenges for change in difficult times

Linda G Dumas et al. Nurs Clin North Am. 2009 Jun.

Abstract

This article is about nursing leadership, workforce diversity, and underrepresentation in nursing. It is about long-term care, specifically the nursing home, the nurses, and the certified nursing assistants. The nursing shortage, the shortage of nurse educators, and curricular changes in the colleges and universities are not the focus of this work. The questions asked here are, who will care for the residents in nursing homes, and how will they recruit the much-needed leadership at a time of unprecedented need?
