Abstract

Examines health‐care restructuring activities undertaken across North American hospitals over the past decade related to hospital care by nursing professionals (i.e. hospital nurses versus practical nurses or aides). Identifies fundamental lessons learned and highlights important priority research areas that must be undertaken to ensure that future initiatives achieve the intended effect of improving patient outcomes.
