Measuring staff productivity involves various metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs). Some common ones include:
- Patient-to-Nurse Ratio: This metric helps in understanding the workload of each nurse. A lower ratio generally indicates higher productivity. - Average Time Per Task: Measuring the time taken to complete standard tasks can provide insights into efficiency levels. - Patient Outcomes: Metrics such as recovery rates, readmission rates, and patient satisfaction scores can indirectly indicate the productivity of nursing staff. - Attendance and Punctuality: Regular attendance and punctuality are basic yet important indicators of staff reliability and productivity.
