Think about this for a second.

Who are nurses? They are PAID employees.

Therefore, a "Nursing Department," is a group of PAID employees grouped together for simplicity within a business.

Do nurses generate a revenue for the hospital? No. The HOSPITAL itself, through services (which includes nurses) generates the revenue. Nurses cost money.

Are pharmacy departments a cost or revenue center?

Until recently a Hospital Phamacy has been a revenue center. However as reimbursement margins shink and Pharmacy moves in a direction of only wanting to provide Clinical Services, which are normally not being paid for, Pharmacy will become a cost center. Pharmacy needs to remember that in the current model of Practice, the revenue generated from Pharmacy is in the dispensing of medications.
