Abstract
A cross-sectional descriptive study, conducted for the period from September 1, 2023, to April 20, 2024, in order to identify administrative planning and its relationship to the efficiency of nursing department officials at Al-Diwaniyah General Hospital. A purposive (non-probability) sample was selected from (50) responsible nurses from this hospital. The responsible nurses were selected and they held a university degree, a technical diploma, a preparatory school certificate, and a nursing school certificate. The nurses who were included in the study were those who had more than three years of experience in Nursing Administration. A questionnaire form was prepared for the purpose of the study, consisting of main parts: demographic characteristics, administrative planning, and performance efficiency. The stability and credibility of the form was determined through the experimental study. The questionnaire form and the structured interview technique were used as two means of collecting data, and the descriptive data analysis method (frequencies, percentages, arithmetic mean, standard deviation) and the descriptive data analysis method (T-test) were applied to analyse the data. The results of the study indicated that there is a statistically significant correlation between both planning and performance efficiency of these officials. The study concluded that this hospital suffers from a deficiency in the institutional structure. The study recommended the need to develop nursing cadres working in the administrative field from a scientific and professional perspective, the need to establish an institutional structure, open the bridging system, and the need to attract female staff to fill the acute shortage.
