  • Title: Home health care nursing research priorities.
    Author: Madigan EA, Vanderboom C.
    Journal: Appl Nurs Res; 2005 Nov; 18(4):221-5. PubMed ID: 16298698.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to determine research priorities for home health care nursing. A Delphi study was undertaken to generate and prioritize research topics. The first round consisted of members of the Home Health Nurses Association Research Committee (n = 27); subsequent rounds also included nurse researchers who had conducted research in home health care (n = 17). Consensus emerged after three rounds, with the four most important priorities identified as outcomes, health policy, the use of advanced practice nurses, and models of care/best practice. These areas are consistent with the regulatory events in home health care in the last 10 years.
