The development and implementation of the district nursing Welsh Levels of Care Tool.
District nurses provide a vital service to individuals and their families and carers in the community. With increasing complexity of care and changes in the needs of the UK population, developing evidence-based workforce and workload tools which are fit for purpose is essential. This article describes the development, piloting and implementation of the District Nursing Welsh Levels of Care (DN WLoC), acuity and dependency tool which has been designed to be used alongside nurses professional judgment, to evidence the acuity and dependency of patients, and to help inform decisions of nurse staffing requirements in district nursing services. The initial pilot successfully achieved its objective and demonstrated that the draft DN WLoC tool is applicable in practice by district nurses across Wales, with limited but positive findings in the reliability and validity of the WLoC tool when applied in clinical practice.
