His text records his observations and conclusions pertaining to the workings of hospital routine and the sociological and psychological processes that are an inherent part of the hospital environment. This examination of Chambliss' research focuses specifically on the information he relates concerning nursing experience, the situations encountered by nurses, how they cope within the hospital environment and what this suggests about how nursing should be perceived within an ethical framework.

The ongoing nursing shortage has meant for ICUs that they may have fewer RNs available to them and that recruiting and retention has become more costly over the past several years. Though costs are of significant importance to ICUs, quality of care remains of central focus. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
