  • Title: The reasonable legal nursing manpower-staffing by using the system dynamics approach.
    Author: Kwon KJ, Kim MS, Kim JA.
    Journal: Stud Health Technol Inform; 2006; 122():795. PubMed ID: 17102386.
    Abstract:
    The Purpose of the study is to lay foundation for reasonable legal nursing manpower staffing by building the nursing manpower-staffing model. The System dynamics approach was adapted to build a simulation model. The model was built up on Vensim 5.0b DSS. In terms of economic efficiency on tertiary hospitals, the ratio of bed to nurse for the best reasonable legal nursing manpower-staffing is 3.0: 1(2.6:1 if calculating in terms of the ratio of patient to nurse) In terms of economic efficiency on secondary hospitals, the ratio of bed to nurse for the best reasonable legal nursing manpower-staffing is 3.5: 1(3.0:1 if calculating in terms of the ratio of patient to nurse).
