title: Keeping the keepers.
abstract: 1. The nurse manager role is no longer limited to the management of patients and personnel. Nurse managers are also accountable for ensuring resources remain balanced and function together during the process. 2. In the health care setting, team members forgo their personal needs to focus on the needs of patients. Although adults have developed internal feelings of self-worth, most still have some dependence on their work, supervisors, and colleagues for positive affirmation. 3. A variety of approaches can provide support to team members, including responding to human needs: facilitating cooperation between team members; ensuring that team members have the necessary information; monitoring team actions in relation to patient needs; investigating potential problems; and intervening with timeliness and diplomacy.
