[Nursing personnel and the concept of care: a nursing administrative viewpoint].
In this article the importance of caring in nursing management was researched. A survey was undertaken between 1992 and 1994 with the purpose to investigate viewpoints of nurse managers and experiences of nurses regarding caring concepts. The data was collected by means of a questionnaire consisting of an adjusted Nyberg Caring Assessment Scale (Nyberg 1989) and other caring concepts selected from the literature. The survey was conducted among respondents of private hospitals in Pretoria. It was clear from the data analysis that nurse managers and nurses regarded caring as an important concept in nursing management. Perceptions of nurse managers regarding caring concepts and the experiences of nurses on caring in nursing management, differed substantially. It was clear that nurse managers and nurses experienced a need for training with regard to caring in nursing management.
