title: Perspectives on nursing issues and health care trends.
abstract: A national survey of nurse administrators from magnet hospitals and faculty directors of graduate programs in nursing administration delineated perspectives on the foremost issues facing professional nurses and the most significant trends in health care policy and delivery. The findings are useful in developing data-based nursing curriculums sensitive to an increasingly market-oriented economy, and for resource-conscious nurse executives struggling to prioritize which issues to address and which directions to take when spending is restrained.
