The cost of nursing services was documented as part of a grant to study the effect of school nursing follow-up on the outcome of dental screening. Eleven nurses participated in the study with experimental (n = 287) groups of fifth and sixth grade students from a large West Coast school district who were screened for caries. Stratifiers for the randomized group assignment were school, cavity severity, gender, ethnicity, and insurance coverage. A positive difference occurred for the 11 nurses (p = 0.0046). The cost of telephone follow-up averaged $8.92 for 26.69 minutes and compared favorably with a California state allowance of $11 for a half-hour of similar service. The study offers a beginning analytical formulation for examining field services in school and community health nursing using a naturalistic experimental design.
护理服务成本作为一项研究学校护理随访对牙科筛查结果影响的拨款的一部分进行了记录。11名护士参与了这项研究，研究对象是来自西海岸一个大型学区的五、六年级学生的实验组（n = 287），这些学生接受了龋齿筛查。随机分组的分层因素包括学校、龋齿严重程度、性别、种族和保险覆盖范围。11名护士的情况出现了显著差异（p = 0.0046）。电话随访的成本平均为8.92美元，时长26.69分钟，与加利福尼亚州半小时类似服务11美元的补贴相比更具优势。该研究为使用自然实验设计检验学校和社区健康护理中的现场服务提供了初步的分析框架。
