Timely access to healthcare services requires the right number, mix and distribution of appropriately educated nurses, physicians and other healthcare professionals. In Ontario, as in several other jurisdictions, changing demographics, patterns of health service utilization and an aging workforce have created challenges related to the supply of nurses available now and in the future to deliver quality patient care. From 2006 to 2009, the Nursing Secretariat (NS) of Ontario's Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (the ministry) undertook a progressive and comprehensive approach to address the issue of nursing supply across the province through the introduction of 17 Nursing Health Human Resources Demonstration Projects (demonstration projects). The demonstration projects initiative has led to the creation of a unique collection of best practices, tools and resources aimed at improving organizational planning capacity. Evaluation of the initiative generated recommendations that may guide the ministry toward policy and program development to foster improved nursing health human resource planning capacity in Ontario healthcare organizations.
及时获得医疗服务需要数量合适、种类恰当且分布合理的受过适当教育的护士、医生及其他医疗专业人员。与其他几个司法管辖区一样，在安大略省，人口结构变化、卫生服务利用模式以及劳动力老龄化给当前及未来提供优质患者护理所需护士的供应带来了挑战。2006年至2009年期间，安大略省卫生和长期护理部（该部门）的护理秘书处采取了一种渐进且全面的方法，通过引入17个护理卫生人力资源示范项目（示范项目）来解决全省的护理供应问题。示范项目倡议促成了一系列独特的最佳实践、工具和资源的产生，旨在提高组织规划能力。对该倡议的评估产生了一些建议，这些建议可能会指导该部门制定政策和计划，以促进安大略省医疗组织提高护理卫生人力资源规划能力。
