  • Title: Job descriptions for differentiated nursing practice and differentiated pay.
    Author: Forsey LM, Cleland VS, Miller B.
    Journal: J Nurs Adm; 1993 May; 23(5):33-40. PubMed ID: 8509875.
    Abstract:
    Compensation of nurses in differentiated practice is based on distinctive job descriptions. The employer can then pay according to education, position, and actual performance level and seek to hire the staff mix that is most cost-effective for the institution. Both staff nursing and manager job descriptions are presented in this article. The authors discuss generic job descriptions that differentiate the practice of the staff nurse and the nurse unit manager according to the incumbent's educational level.
