The head of nursing on a particular ward is a Sister (or Charge Nurse if a man). Sisters are now sometimes called Ward Managers. Under her there will be other Registered Nurses as well as Student Nurses. There will also be Nursing auxiliaries, who are not qualified nurses, who help with duties such as bathing and meals. Nurse Managers are in charge of nursing staff on a number of wards, in a unit or a hospital. Some hospitals have introduced the concept of primary nursing where you have your 'own nurse', who is particularly responsible for your care.
