Role segmentation avoids blending any aspect of the professional role with the personal role.This is the most comprehensive suggestion the manager can give the nurse.Limiting work time at home to the baby's sleeping time might lead to sleep deprivation for the nurse.Role integration would create more blending of roles.Working part time might or might not be an option, but this still does not help the nurse separate the roles.
