What Are Some Examples of Successful Staffing Models?
Several staffing models have shown promise in various healthcare settings:
1. Primary Nursing: In this model, one nurse is responsible for overseeing a patient’s care from admission to discharge. This ensures continuity of care and fosters strong nurse-patient relationships. 2. Team Nursing: A team of nurses, led by a team leader, collaborates to care for a group of patients. This model leverages the strengths of each team member to provide comprehensive care. 3. Magnet Model: Hospitals recognized as Magnet Hospitals often have better staffing models that emphasize professional development, nurse autonomy, and evidence-based practice.
