FAQs

In nursing leadership describes ability to inspire, influence, and motivate other health care professionals. The goal should be to get the highest possible potential out of the professionals during the collaboration in order to achieve the collective organizational goals. The nurse leader acts as a role model for others and for the health care system.
Clinical and bedside nurses use their leadership skills to provide patient care and to coordinate, lead and support other team members.

Nursing clinical leadership includes critical thinking, decision making, action, and advocacy. Nursing leaders should have hard and soft skills to carry out their tasks appropriately. Hard skills include advanced clinical skills and technical knowledge. Soft skills are the social skills needed to communicate and work effectively with colleagues and subordinates. Soft skills are developed during a nursing leader’s career.

The best way to demonstrate leadership is to be proactive. That means react first in a crisis. You should also know how to delegate tasks and respecfully talk to other health care professionals. Also volunteer on a committee demonstrates leadership. Another important component is continuing education in general and in clinical knowledge.

Leadership and management in nursing differ in the role of nursing professionals. Nursing managers are responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of nursing departments and supervising department staff. In detail, nursing management is the process of leading teams and nursing departments to ensure best practices and organization in patient care. In contrast, leaders typically supervise nursing teams and ensure the overall success of the department or hospital as a whole.

The Lecturio leadership course for nurses includes over 50 videos with a total length of over 4 hours. The more than 200 matching quiz questions also help you to consolidate and cement the knowledge you have heard by using Spaced Repetition. In addition, over 100 Qbank questions prepare you for your exams. Lecturio also provides you with a predefined Study Planner so that you know which areas of the leadership still need to be studied. The Learning Paths allow you to see your progress and any gaps in your knowledge.
