Assessing intensity of nursing care needs using electronically available data.
The aim of this project was to develop and test a Nursing Intensity of Care Index using electronically available data from 152,072 patient discharges from three hospitals. In preliminary testing, data for the Nursing Intensity of Care Index, which accurately reflect nursing care intensity, can be obtained electronically in real time. The next steps will be a discrete-event simulation model and large-scale field trials.
