    Author: Wakefield DS, Mathis S.
    Journal: J Nurs Adm; 1985 Jan; 15(1):35-9. PubMed ID: 3917494.
    Abstract:
    The implementation of the federal Medicare Diagnosis Related Groupings (DRGs)-based prospective payment system (PPS) has caused nursing administrators to examine staffing policies and strategies closely. A critical component under nursing management's control is the use of part-time nurses to solve scheduling, cost, and quality-of-care problems. This article analyzes past and future use of part-time nurses.
