Nursing-sensitive outcomes

Nursing-sensitive outcomes are measurable results that directly reflect the quality of nursing care provided to patients. They include factors such as patient safety, recovery rates, prevention of complications, and patient satisfaction. These outcomes help evaluate how well nurses are performing their roles and impact patient health. For example, fewer infections or hospital readmissions after nursing interventions indicate effective nursing care. Monitoring these outcomes ensures continuous improvement in nursing practices, ultimately leading to better patient experiences and health results.
