Summary
Nursing sensitive outcomes are measures of the quality of care provided by nurses. This study will establish those measures within Australian children’s hospitals. This information can be used to better understand and improve nurses’ practice. It will provide a standardised approach to measuring outcomes of paediatric nursing care and will provide reliable and valid information for benchmarking with similar children’s hospitals which in turn will assist in promoting patient safety.
