The final frontier heralds a new era in which nursing finally assumes its rightful place as the leader in the health-care delivery industry through a systematized body of knowledge, new nursing technologies, and the final assumption of power through modern management techniques. Nursing is the agent of change for moving health care from a cottage industry to a full-fledged business enterprise--a business with compassion, empathy, and quality.
最后的前沿预示着一个新时代的到来，在这个时代，护理终于通过系统化的知识体系、新的护理技术以及借助现代管理技术最终掌握权力，从而在医疗保健服务行业中占据其应有的领导地位。护理是推动医疗保健从家庭作坊式产业转变为成熟商业企业的变革力量——一个充满同情心、同理心且注重质量的行业。
