Research Abstract |
This study examined the role of staff stations in a system of team nursing. The author researched the transfer room for patients, number of nursing visits, and nursing care needs scores in the acute care unit. The following results were obtained: 1) If there were staff stations in non-central locations, nurses were able to managewithout a transfer room for patients with high care needs.2) A strong correlation was found between the scores of nursing care needs A and nursing visits. Therefore, the number of staff stations should be based on the scores of patients' nursing care needs A.
