title: Healthcare in transition. Labor law impact on nurse-supervisor roles.
abstract: The United States Supreme Court has issued a new decision concerning the representation rights of nurses who exercise supervisory authority on behalf of their employers. However, the holding of the decision may reflect a view of labor-management relations that is outdated, given the massive changes that healthcare is going through in the 1990s.
