Abstract:
Existing data about nursing practice personnel has been found to be fragmented, incomplete, and non-uniform. These shortcomings can severely hamper administrative decision making related to professional practice systems in general, and differentiated pay and practice models in particular. The Nursing Personnel Practice Data Set (NPPDS) is designed to remedy these deficiencies by providing available, accessible, reliable, and comparable data about nursing personnel. The authors describe elements of the NPPDS and discuss implementation aims.
