The Nursing Dean Role: An Integrative Review.

AIM: The aim of this integrative review was to appraise research on the uniqueness of the nursing dean role.

BACKGROUND: Deans of nursing are challenged with multiple expectations of their role, which is unlike that of other deans in academia. Investigation is needed to understand what is entailed in being a dean of nursing.

METHOD: This integrative review explores the role of the nurse dean utilizing a model described by Whittemore and Knafl. Their strategy uses a five-step process of problem identification, literature search, data evaluation, data analysis, and presentation.

RESULTS: Nursing deans are expected to excel in areas of education, the health care system, and relationships with the community stakeholders while navigating challenges of limited funding and a nationwide faculty shortage.

CONCLUSION: This integrative literature review was an initial step toward the collective understanding of the nursing dean role.
