Abstract
AbstractA public health management data system was used by a country public health nursing administration to assess the impact of integrating primary care and public health nursing services on the allocation of nursing time to home visits. Two areas of the county were shown to be comparable in proxy indicators of need for these services. The t test of differences in means and calculation of confidence intervals were the methods of analysis. There was a significant decrease in the numbers of and time for home visits after integration of the two kinds of services. Using routinely collected personnel activity reports to indicate staff and client needs is discussed.
