Nursing unit managers: defining a role.
Using Katz's classification scale, a panel of experts--nurse managers, nurse academics and professional and industrial nursing organization representatives--identified roles expected of first-line nursing managers in New South Wales hospitals. The 156 competencies defined by this group were classified into technical, human and conceptual skills. Classifications determine the manager's responsibilities, authority and performance accountability.
