摘要
This study was carried out to determine the role and development needs of Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNSs) in two acute hospital trusts. One of the aims was to obtain a detailed understanding of the current professional experience of Clinical Nurse Specialists. Data were collected using focus groups and analysed descriptively. Analysis of the content was qualitative, based on a grounded theory approach, and followed the initial steps of open and axial coding. Role transition and development needs are identified on a continuum of novice to expert.
