Abstract
Objective To explore the nursing labor allocation model based on patient classification combined with nursing labor hour calculation in Class Ⅲ Grade A hospitals. Methods The patients in the general hospital were divided into 6 grades: special grade, Ⅰa, Ⅰb, Ⅱa, Ⅱb and Ⅲ. The daily direct and indirect nursing labor for patients of different grade were calculated, combining traditional grading nursing with Barthel Self-Care Ability Score. Results A nursing labor allocation model based on patient classification and nursing workload and man-hour measurement in internal and surgical wards of Class Ⅲ general hospitals was constructed. Conclusions Nursing labor allocation model based on patient classification and nursing workload and man-hour measurement can truly reflect the difference of nursing workload between internal and surgical wards. It can guide the clinical scientific, rational and effective allocation and use of nursing manpower. Key words: Nursing administration research; Patient classification; Nursing workload; Man-hour calculation; Manpower allocation
