The determination of nursing staff mix is a challenge for many health care agencies. Staff mix decisions have historically been based on workload measurement information, the type of patient care unit and on a subjective or intuitive basis. Weighted task lists (workload measurement systems) do not comprehensively consider the skill and knowledge level required to meet patient care needs. This project describes the development of an instrument that considers patient's nursing care needs as a determinant of nursing staff mix. Recommendations for the use of the tool are identified.
确定护理人员配置组合对许多医疗保健机构来说都是一项挑战。历史上，人员配置组合的决策一直基于工作量测量信息、患者护理单元的类型以及主观或直观的依据。加权任务清单（工作量测量系统）并未全面考虑满足患者护理需求所需的技能和知识水平。本项目描述了一种将患者护理需求作为护理人员配置组合决定因素的工具的开发过程。同时还确定了该工具的使用建议。
