Construction of the model of clinical nursing post classification based on delicacy management

Abstract

Objective To construct and implement a calculation model of clinical nursing post classification. Methods Between October to December 2018, head nurses of the hospital were screened as consultants, and Delphi method was used to determine the indicators, while the weights were assigned from the aspects of nursing workload, work quality, patient satisfaction and number of nursing night shifts. Combined with HIS data, the calculation model of clinical nursing post classification was constructed to classify clinical nursing units into different categories and levels. Results After two rounds of expert enquiry, 82 nursing work items were identified and the objective weight assignment was determined ranging from 0.80 to16.14. According to the established calculation model and HIS data, nursing posts in clinical departments were classified into 6 levels and 3 categories, and the accurate management of clinical nursing post classification was achieved. Conclusions The construction of a calculation model is scientific and rigorous, which provides a scientific basis for dynamic nurse performance management and rational allocation of human resources. In addition, it provides a useful reference for accurate nursing management. Key words: Hospital administration; Nursing post; Delicacy management; Models; Delphi method
