The final frontier: nursing in the emerging health-care environment.
The final frontier heralds a new era in which nursing finally assumes its rightful place as the leader in the health-care delivery industry through a systematized body of knowledge, new nursing technologies, and the final assumption of power through modern management techniques. Nursing is the agent of change for moving health care from a cottage industry to a full-fledged business enterprise--a business with compassion, empathy, and quality.
