Hospital nurse productivity.

Steven R Eastaugh1.   

Abstract

Nurse staffing patterns have come under increased scrutiny as hospital managers attempt to control costs without harming service quality or staff morale. This study presents production function results from a study of nurse output during the period 1997-2000. The results suggest that productivity varies widely among hospitals as a function of staffing patterns, methods of organization, and the degree of reliance on nurse extender (NE) technicians. NEs can enhance the marginal value product of the most educated nurses as the registered nurses (RNs) concentrate their workday around patient care activities. The results suggest that nurse extenders free RNs from the burden of nonnursing tasks.
