professional. She utilizes her positively funny style to illustrate how a sense of humor<br />
can be an integral part of a strategy for success. Her message is that sense of humor is<br />

system outcomes improvement.<br />
2. findings from recent nurse staffing research apply to perinatal nurse staffing.<br />
3. lessons learned from successful quality improvement efforts on perinatal units can be applied to your<br />
