The subject of this thesis is called ?The influence of the middle nursing management on the nursing care quality?. The theoretical part focuses on head nurses, their preferred characteristics, skills, competencies, leadership styles and the way of implementing changes. The component of the theoretical part is also a description of the nursing care quality, and some ways how to achieve it. The practical part focuses on the influence of head nurses on the nursing care quality. For the processing the thesis has been used the combination of both qualitative and quantitative surveys. Our inquiry was conducted in the South-Bohemian hospitals and head nurses were the respondents. During the questioning survey and interviews we have managed to achieve all our pre-defined targets. Through the interviews we have managed to answer all given research questions. We found that all interviewed head nurses have the professional knowledge of the nursing management field. We identified ways of implementing changes to enhance the nursing care quality in practice. The head nurses stated, that nurses accept these changes after a presentation of professional arguments, and that the head nurses are led and supported during the introduction of the changes by top management. The head nurses, interviewed by us, believe that the adoption of changes to enhance the nursing care quality will help to increase the prestige of nursing and support the independence of this field. Based on the evaluation results of the survey we have identified the reluctance of nurses to learn new things as the most common problem in the implementation of changes.
