Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Healthcare Administration
  • Performance Measurement

Background:

  • Nurse leaders face challenges in objectively evaluating the performance of acute care nurse practitioners (ACNPs).
  • Justifying the roles and contributions of ACNPs is crucial for healthcare organizations.
  • There is a need for standardized methods to assess ACNP performance and outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and evaluate an objective documentation tool for measuring ACNP performance.
  • To provide nurse leaders with a method for assessing ACNP work activities and outcomes.
  • To support the justification of ACNP positions through data-driven evaluation.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a novel objective documentation tool.
  • Implementation of the tool for ACNP performance evaluation.
  • Analysis of ACNP work activities, performance metrics, and patient outcomes.

Main Results:

  • The objective tool effectively captured ACNP work activities.
  • Performance and outcomes measurement was enhanced through the tool.
  • Data provided a basis for justifying ACNP roles.

Conclusions:

  • An objective documentation tool is valuable for evaluating ACNP performance.
  • This tool aids nurse leaders in performance assessment and role justification.
  • Implementing such tools can improve the recognition and integration of ACNPs in acute care settings.
