Article Synopsis
- - This study aimed to explore how ward operational efficiency impacts nursing workload and to identify factors influencing that workload within a hospital setting.
- - Conducted over a year in a Chinese hospital with 266,470 patient records and 52 nurses, it found that nursing workload correlates with multiple factors like case mix index and patient transfer rates.
- - The findings emphasize that understanding this relationship is crucial for effective nurse staffing policies, ultimately aiding nursing managers in better resource allocation and improving patient care.
Aim: To explore the nursing workforce allocation in intensive care units (ICUs) of COVID-19-designated hospitals during the epidemic peak in China.
Design: A nationwide cross-sectional online survey.
Methods: A total of 37 head nurses and 262 frontline nurses in 37 ICUs of COVID-19-designated tertiary hospitals located in 22 cities of China were surveyed.
Aims: The aim of this study is to investigate the situation and perceptions of nursing directors about emergency nursing staff deployment in designated hospitals during the pandemic of COVID-19 in mainland China.
Background: The pandemic of COVID-19 has significantly depleted health care resources, leading to increased burden of nursing care and staffing and exacerbating the crisis in health care facilities. Currently, how to effectively plan and schedule nursing staffing in the pandemic still remains unknown.
Background: Appropriate allocation of nursing staff is key to ensuring efficient nursing in hospitals, and is significantly correlated with patient safety, nursing quality, and nurse job satisfaction. However, there are few studies on nursing workforce allocation in the isolation wards of COVID-19 designated hospitals globally. This study aims to better understand the nursing workforce allocation in the isolation wards of COVID-19 designated hospitals in China, and provide a theoretical basis for efficiently deploying first-line nurses in China and across the world in the future.
