Nursing Administration

What is Nursing Administration?
The role of the Nurse Administrator is varied and may assume a number of different types of nurse manager, executive and leadership positions. For example, the nurse prepared with a Master's in Nursing Administration would be able to assume the role of Director of Nurses (Clinical Services) in a Home Health Agency, Skilled Nursing Facility, Outpatient Clinic, and community-based hospitals. Other roles include consultant for a variety of health care agencies including nursing homes, skilled facilities, and home health agencies. Students graduating with this degree may assume responsibility for positions as Director of departments and service lines in large hospital systems, for example, VAMC, Tenet. Additionally, someone prepared at this level may seek a role as Director of Staff Development, or Education Departments.
