Abstract
The purpose of this study was to describe the values identified by nurses in middle management positions at a Florida for profit hospital. Latent content analysis was the method used to describe values identified by ten nurses in middle management positions. The analysis revealed a total of eight value themes. Two themes emerged as overarching: the value of economics and the value of caring. Six other value themes were interwoven into the overarching themes and consisted of commitment, compassion, competence, patience, respect for the other and technology.
