Synopsis

How can a ward nursing management system be implemented that will not only help nurses do their jobs more efficiently, but will also enable them to give better care to patients. Previous Audit Commission reports have indicated that, in order to set up an effective ward nursing management system, better information is required about patients and their needs, how to help nurses to manage their workload more efficiently and how to enable managers to plan future activities and staffing needs. This report builds on these findings, recommending effective practices in computerized care planning, assessing workloads and rostering, and highlighting the pitfalls to be avoided.
