Traditional ethical leadership in healthcare concentrated on the oversight of the individual provider–patient relationship. However, as care delivery becomes predominantly team-based and integrated across provider organizations, these ethical frameworks also need to consider meso-and macro-factors within the system. These broader issues require managers and administrative leaders to augment their ethical perspectives beyond current and prospective patients with those of the team, organization, and broader system, where high levels of coordination and oversight are essential. Administrators are increasingly ethically accountable not only for how individual care encounters are conducted (micro level) but also for how the system is organized to deliver and ensure quality care for patients receiving care (meso level) and service populations who turn to them for care when needed (macro level).

Continuing professional development through lifelong learning has become one of the most nursing education topics that have received scholarly attention. While there is extensive research on continuing professional development through lifelong learning, less is known about the experiences and perceptions held by nurses as learners and the intersection with nursing leadership and management. Therefore, this paper evaluates continuing professional development, lifelong learning in nursing and its intersection with nursing leadership and management through learner's perspective. It primarily focuses on exploring a scholarly source, "Lifelong Learning and Nurses' Continuing Professional Development, a Meta-synthesis of the Literature." The methodology employed in the paper is a meta-synthesis focused on exploring peer-reviewed articles assessing lifelong learning and CPD through a learner's perspective and revealing the intersection between this nursing education approach, nursing leadership, and management. The results revealed five overarching themes crucial in revealing the intersection between continuing professional development and lifelong learning with nursing leadership and management through the lens of nursing learners' perspectives and experiences.

The Prairie Node study is one of five regional case studies, or “nodes”, in the pan-Canadian “Leadership and Health System Redesign” project funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research’s (CIHR) Partnerships for Health System Improvement (PHSI) program. The purpose of the pan-Canadian project is to help develop leadership capacity in the Canadian health system through applied research and knowledge translation. The project began in 2009 in response to growing concern throughout the health system about the impending expiry of the 2004 federal provincial 10-year plan and the future role of the federal government. The project also responds to broader public concerns about health system efficiency, quality, and accessibility – crises for which restructuring is seen as a potential solution. Despite growing recognition of the importance of leadership in restructuring and transforming health systems, there is a need to clearly understand the most effective leadership practices to facilitate health system reform. Beyond this, the pan-Canadian project strives to bridge knowledge with practice by developing and mobilizing a set of approaches, tools, and techniques to create a culture of effective healthleadership in Canada.
The Prairie Node case study focused on leadership in the implementation of shared services in Saskatchewan. Originating from the 2009 Patient First Review, the goal of the Shared Services Initiative (SSI) was to achieve cost savings by consolidating supply management and business functions through a central office. Recognizing the limitations of the recent centralization initiative that produced a single health organization in Alberta, the goal of Saskatchewan’s SSI was to achieve economies of scale and scope while maintaining its decentralized system. To date, SSI implementation has targeted supply chain, linen, and human resource lines, with future projects planned for environmental services, medical imaging, and laboratory functions. Like the other regional nodes, the Prairie Node project used a Participatory Action Research (PAR) framework, which emphasizes the involvement of participants in designing and implementing the research.
