<Typically they have their own hierarchy in a hospital, and their own training applies to their work. Often the top nurse is someone with a nursing PhD, but if not, normally there is in any case a head nurse for the institution and the floor. Failing that, normally a doctor is the nurses manager.>

A nursing PhD is far from being an expert in nursing. Once it comes to nursing, experience holds more weight than degrees, especially in the management of a highly political environment, which hospitals are prone to be. You have bolstered my point in indicating that a PhD could possibly manage better than a nurse with 30 years of experience.
