Your falls rate dropped 42% after the intervention. What if the improvement started five months before you did anything and the run chart could have told you in ninety seconds?
A vendor demonstrates a prediction model with excellent accuracy. At your base rate, how many false alerts will your nurses carry for every real case they catch?
You were promoted because you were good at the bedside. Nothing in your clinical preparation rehearsed defending a variance you did not create, counselling a colleague who was your peer on Friday, or explaining why the unit is short. You are expected to learn it in public, on a live unit, while the census climbs.
This handbook was written for that gap.
What it gives you:
- Arithmetic you can defend. 37 formulas worked end to end NHPPD, FTE build, replacement factor, three-way variance, turnover cost, control limits, expected value, predictive value. Variables defined, units carried, one worked example each.
- 45 worked scenarios that finish at a number, not a principle: converting an imposed budget target back into the hours it actually funds; pricing a separation from your own payroll instead of a vendor survey; deciding a midnight flex when the arithmetic and the ratio standard disagree.
- Evidence stated honestly. Effect sizes with confidence intervals, designs named, and the limitation given before someone else finds it. Where a body of evidence is weak leadership-style instruments, recognition programmes, resilience training the book says so and explains why.
- The legal and regulatory exposure nobody briefed you on: delegation and scope, documentation and late entries, retaliation risk, representation at investigatory interviews, impaired practice.
- 105 practice questions with boxed answers that give the reasoning, not the letter suitable for certification preparation and for settling an argument at the desk.
What you will be able to do
- Rebuild your own personnel budget line by line and identify exactly where an imposed reduction lands
- Convert a ratio standard into a defensible NHPPD figure, with every assumption stated
- Decompose a variance before explaining it, so corrective action lands on the part you control
- Show turnover as capacity lost rather than a percentage executives can wave through
- Read a control chart, a benchmark, and a vendor claim critically enough to say what each can and cannot support
- Delegate, assign, and document in a way that survives review
- Run a conduct conversation, a disciplinary process, and a disclosure without creating exposure
- Inside: 15 chapters across 5 parts · 56 reference tables · 35 purpose-built diagrams and charts · appendices consolidating every formula, named study, abbreviation, and template.
- Written for registered nurses moving into charge and manager roles, nurse managers and directors, graduate students in nursing administration, and clinical educators.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
