Abstract

For decades, collegiality has persisted as an important issue for nurses, especially for nurse leaders. In an increasingly interdependent healthcare environment, collegial relationships among nurses and other health professionals are vital to achieving the goal of clinically integrated care. Nurse administrators greatly influence decision making among health professionals by monitoring and facilitating their interactions. The model used in this study contributes to an understanding of the factors that affect collegiality among nurses and potentially among other members of the healthcare team.
