Social support and adjustment in women following coronary artery bypass surgery.

Social support expected, discrepancies in support (differences between support expected and received), and self-esteem were used to predict emotional (tension and depression) and functional outcomes (recreation, housework, and social life) in a sample of women who had coronary artery bypass surgery (N = 86). Women were interviewed before hospital discharge (T1) and 1 (T2) and 3 (T3) months later. Higher self-esteem was associated with lower depression and tension (T3) and less disruption in social interaction (T2 and T3) and recreation (T3). Results suggest that social support may influence outcomes through enhancement of self-esteem. Directions for further study are given.

Partners in nursing education.

In this article, the authors present the efforts of several hospitals in a large southern city to collaborate on continuing education projects to meet the needs of the nursing staff. In 1985, four hospitals formed a health maintenance organization. An outgrowth was the formation of a critical care consortium whose main objective was to develop an entry level critical care course. The authors discuss the development of this course, the advantages and disadvantages of a partnership, and the results of 7 years of experience.
