Description

"This literature review uses and analyzes nursing-sensitive indicators for community-based nonacute care. Seeking evidence-based indicators that reflect the quality of nursing care, an ANA advisory committee determined that the indicators as a set should include measures of structure, nursing process, and client/patient outcomes with a strong relationship to nursing care. The resulting community-based nonacute care indicators are pain management; consistency of communication; staff mix; client/patient satisfaction; tobacco use prevention; cardiovascular disease prevention; care giver activity; identification of primary care giver; activities of daily living; and psychosocial interaction." -- Cover page 4.
