  • Title: Social support in the workplace: nurse leader implications.
    Author: Shirey MR.
    Journal: Nurs Econ; 2004; 22(6):313-9, 291. PubMed ID: 15651589.
    Abstract:
    The state of the science as it relates to the stress-mediating role of social support in the health care work environment is explored. The ability to build a nursing leadership workforce is dependent upon a type of social support mechanism that mediates the inherent stress that comes along with managerial positions. Independent of the inevitable work-related stress associated with the nurse manager role, social support provided to current and aspiring nurse leaders is assumed to assist with coping and thriving in the work environment.
