Task_1_C489.docx C489 ORGANIZATIONAL SYSTEMS AND QUALITY LEADERSHIP Western Governors University A.Nursing Quality Indicators Nursing quality indicators fundamentally encompass the aspects of nursing care that affect patient outcomes. The aspects of nursing care that influence patient outcomes include latent problems that may occur during the hospitalization period such as a fall (Gao et al. 2018). Nursing quality indicators are typically evaluated during patient care to determine the patients satisfaction. In addition to focusing on patient outcomes, nursing patient indicators also focus on care givers. Notably, staffing issues among nurses such as exhaustion, work displeasure, and short-staffed units affect the quality of patient care (Naik et al. 2020). Consistent with the focus on both patients and caregivers, nursing quality indicators are segmented into various categories including structural, procedure, and outcome indicators. Specific nursing quality indicators include falls during hospitalization, the time spent by nurses on patients, IV infiltrations, as well as the use of restraints.
