Abstract
Nearly three of every five hospitals in the United States have been involved in some form of consolidation during the past 5 years. Within this turbulent hospital merger environment, nurse executives are confronted with organizational, professional, and personal decisions. Stakeholder analysis is offered as one strategy to facilitate effectiveness throughout the hospitals' merger life-cycle.Keywords
