摘要:

An analysis of patient records in four different DRG categories estimated direct nursing care requirements. The evaluation of these results showed a great range in direct hours of nursing care, as well as resultant cost of nursing care within and among the DRG categories. Nursing resource use is widely fluctuating based on acuity levels, length of stay, and DRG category. Thus, it was concluded the variables inherent in a model to predict cost rely on determinants of the functional needs of the individual patient.

摘要:

Comparable worth has been called the civil rights issue of the 1980s. Nursing is in the forefront of this movement. Although several governmental agencies are implementing salary programs based on comparable worth, establishing such a program in the hospital setting could yield problems for nurse executives. Implementation could be costly and demand a significant investment of resources. This paper discusses how wages are determined in a competitive market and what happens to that process when restrictions and barriers make the market noncompetitive. Of most importance, alternative strategies for increasing nursing salaries are presented.
