Abstract: According to recent research from the United States, Defining a competency-based model for nursing
management development will help to establish core competencies for nursing managers which will not only
strengthen their practice and provide further learning and development opportunities, but will also provide the
basis to focus training and professional development efforts.

Full text: 2011 JAN 6 - (VerticalNews.com) -- New investigation results, 'Towards a competency-based
framework for nursing management education,' are detailed in a study published in International Journal of
Nursing Practice. According to recent research from the United States, "Defining a competency-based model for
nursing management development will help to establish core competencies for nursing managers which will not
only strengthen their practice and provide further learning and development opportunities, but will also provide
the basis to focus training and professional development efforts. This paper identifies the competencies
important for effective nursing management in the public and private health sectors."
"A total of 420 senior nursing managers in South Africa were surveyed using a self-administered questionnaire.
Respondents had to rate the importance of 51 competency items as it pertains to effective nursing
management. Self-management, controlling, health/clinical, organizing, people management, planning and
ethical/legal competencies were found the most valuable for optimal nursing management," wrote R. Pillay and
colleagues, Oklahoma State University.
The researchers concluded: "These findings reflect the reality of the nursing management milieu and will be
useful in the design and delivery of management development programmes aimed at enhancing nursing
management capacity."
Pillay and colleagues published their study in International Journal of Nursing Practice (Towards a competency-
based framework for nursing management education. International Journal of Nursing Practice, 2010;16(6):545-
54).
