Conflict management

Abstract

This project demonstrates use of a reliable instrument to describe nurse-nurse collaboration. Conflict management between clinical nurses was identified to have a low level of correlation with all subscales of collaboration. An intervention addressing conflict management may support collaboration, therefore decreasing errors, improving patient outcomes, and increasing clinical nursing satisfaction.
