Review and recommendations -- pt. 2. Resources for the study.Hospitals and nursing homes are responding to changes in the health care system by modifying staffing levels and the mix of nursing personnel. But do these changes endanger the quality of patient care? Do nursing staff suffer increased rates of injury, illness, or stress because of changing workplace demands? These questions are addressed in Nursing Staff in Hospitals and Nursing Homes, a thorough and authoritative look at today's health care system that also takes a long-term view of staffing needs for nursing as the nation moves into the next century. The committee draws fundamental conclusions about the evolving role of nurses in hospitals and nursing homes and presents recommendations about staffing decisions, nursing training, measurement of quality, reimbursement, and other areas. The volume also discusses work-related injuries, violence toward and abuse of nursing staffs, and stress among nursing personnel--and examines whether these problems are related to staffing levels. Included is a readable overview of the underlying trends in health care that have given rise to urgent questions about nurse staffing: population changes, budget pressures, and the introduction of new technologies. Nursing Staff in Hospitals and Nursing Homes provides a straightforward examination of complex and sensitive issues surround the role and value of nursing on our health care system.NursesSupply and demandUnited StatesNurses' aidesSupply and demandUnited StatesHospital careUnited StatesNursing home careUnited StatesNursesSupply and demandNurses' aidesSupply and demandHospital careNursing home care331.12/91362173/0973Wunderlich Gooloo S1088603Sloan Frank A116362Davis Carolyne K1596661Institute of Medicine (U.S.).Committee on the Adequacy of Nurse Staffing in Hospitals and Nursing Homes.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827545903321Nursing staff in hospitals and nursing homes3918109UNINA
