Financial Management for Nurse Managers: Merging the Heart with the Dollar, Third Edition is an essential text for nursing students and professionals because it addresses the financial management issues faced by nurse managers. Chief nursing officers and those in nurse administrator roles will also find this text valuable because of the acute focus on the financial impact of administrative and management decisions across hospitals and healthcare organizations. The Third Edition covers a broad range of topics, and demonstrates the interconnectivity between finance and other aspects of health care through evidence in healthcare finance, economics and cost accounting, budgeting, staffing effectiveness, and legal and ethical issues. The text is expertly organized and includes real-world examples to lend context to the reader. Coverage of the value-based reimbursement system is an integral component of the Third Edition. The authors emphasize the concept of giving the patient what is valued and recommend listening to patient needs, collaboration in healthcare decision-making, and shifting the role of the administrator to support care leaders. Additionally, the text has been updated to reflect the impact of the Affordable Care Act. / https://dc.etsu.edu/etsu_books/1201/thumbnail.jpg

This study investigated the associations among relational uncertainty, communication efficacy, and the frequency and comfort of discussing religious topics in romantic relationships. Participants included 204 young adults currently involved in a romantic relationship. Preliminary analyses (i.e., bivariate correlations) revealed a positive association between time dating and the frequency with which respondents discussed religious topics, as well as a positive association between the frequency of discussing religious topics and the perception that one shares a similar religious affiliation with one's romantic partner. Primary analyses revealed a negative relationship between relational uncertainty and the frequency and comfort with which partners discuss religious beliefs. Though anxiety from uncertainty discrepancies yielded no meaningful association with the discussion of religious beliefs, communication efficacy was positively associated with comfort levels and frequency of such conversations in dating relationships. Hierarchical regression analyses revealed that relational uncertainty and communication efficacy combine to predict the comfort level and frequency with which romantic partners discuss religious topics. Furthermore, a suppressor effect emerged for coping efficacy on the frequency with which respondents discussed religious topics, such that those individuals who lacked confidence in their abilities to cope with their romantic partner's religious beliefs, but perceived that their partners would be honest about their beliefs when asked, were more likely to engage in discussions about said beliefs. The results also provided some support for the effects of relational turbulence on the comfort level associated with discussing religious topics. Specifically, the associations between relational uncertainty, communication efficacy, and the comfort associated with discussing religious topics were more robust at moderate levels of intimacy rather than at low or high levels of intimacy. Collectively, the results provide evidence that relational uncertainty and communication efficacy are meaningful factors that potentially influence the frequency and comfort level associated with discussing religious topics in romantic relationships.
