Nursing leadership within health systems is required to design and ensure the delivery of clinical
ed d
prevention interventions and population-based care that promotes health, reduces the risk of chronic
ar stu
illness, and prevents disease. Acquiring the skills and knowledge necessary to meet this demand is
essential for nursing practice ( Allanetal, 2005).
