Quality care nursing agency
What is the definition of quality nursing care?
The Institute of Medicine defines health care quality as "the degree to which health care services for individuals and populations increase the likelihood of desired health outcomes and are consistent with current professional knowledge.".
What is good nursing care?
A good nurse can be described as someone who makes patients feel comfortable and who is also adequately able to attend to the care needs of her patients. Good nurses are detailed-oriented and critical thinkers. However, they are also compassionate and giving professionals.
Is a nurse considered a healthcare provider?
Nurses certainly are healthcare providers that help treat patients, but so are a wide variety of healthcare workers. Healthcare providers can range from medical assistance and medical billing and coding specialists to dental professionals, massage therapists, and allied health professions.
What are nursing quality indicators?
Nursing-sensitive indicators identify structures of care and care processes, both of which in turn influence care outcomes. Nursing-sensitive indicators are distinct and specific to nursing, and differ from medical indicators of care quality. For example, one structural nursing indicator is nursing care hours provided per patient day.
