Dr. Arlyss Anderson Rothman and Dr. R. Adams Dudley present their INQRI project: "Nursing Care Quality in Acute Care Hospitals: New Linkages to Patient Outcomes" at the 4th Annual INQRI meeting.
Project Description: Increased public reporting of hospital performance and the emergence of hospital pay-for-performance initiatives provide new impetus to defining and maximizing all aspects of hospital care. This interdisciplinary team has examined whether increases in nurse staffing and skill mix improve hospital performance on a subset of JCAHO core measures, enhance patient perceptions of nursing performance, and improve overall nursing performance as measured by composite indicators that capture patients' perceptions of care and other selected outcomes of care such as complication rates.
