Research analyzes the significant influence on
safety, quality, experience and value measures
Press Ganey Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:PGND) today published its
Nursing Special Report: The Influence of Nurse Work Environment on
Patient, Payment and Nurse Outcomes in Acute Care Settings.
Integrated analyses of data from multiple performance domains
indicate that the overall work environment of nurses is a key
driver of performance, with as much influence as nurse staffing
across most measures.
As a key player on the front lines of health care delivery,
nurses play a critical role in preventing adverse events,
coordinating care and enabling patients to achieve optimal
outcomes. This state-of-the-science report is derived from rigorous
statistical analysis of NDNQI®, HCAHPS, engagement and
pay-for-performance data. This report examines:
- Relationships between nurse work
environment, staffing and key performance measures
- Areas in which nurse work environment
has the greatest impact on patient, pay for performance and nurse
outcomes
- Improvement opportunities to optimize
efficiency and reduce patient suffering
As the health care market rapidly evolves towards a value-based
model of care, it is essential that health system leaders and nurse
managers understand the various internal and external factors
influencing the nurses’ work environment and the quality of the
nursing practice.
“Nurses are vital to ensuring delivery of safe, effective and
compassionate care across every sector of health care,” said
Christy Dempsey, Press Ganey Chief Nursing Officer. “These findings
clearly demonstrate that the quality of the nursing work
environment significantly influences nurses’ ability to reduce
suffering for patients and caregivers alike.”
