Leading-Following: Nurse-Led Care Center Exemplars.

There are many ways to lead across all healthcare settings. It is important for nurses to find a way of leading that is grounded in unique nursing knowledge that is consistent with their values and beliefs. These values and beliefs are "lived out" in chosen projects. The purpose of this paper is to explore Parse's leading-following model. This exploration is focused on nurse-led care centers or clinics exemplars, since the centers serve as "chosen" projects of nurse leaders.
