Nursing management refers to the process of coordination, organization and management of nursing services by medical institutions and other nursing service institutions, covering the planning, implementation, supervision and evaluation of nursing services. By formulating and implementing effective nursing strategies and procedures, we can coordinate and optimize the nursing practice in medical institutions and provide high-quality nursing services.
With the infiltration of advanced science and technology and scientific management methods in various professional fields, nursing management has gradually changed from past experience management to scientific management. In order to promote the development of nursing management discipline and continuously improve the level of nursing management, nurses at all levels, especially senior nurses and nursing managers, are required to master the theoretical knowledge, methods and application of nursing management in nursing practice.
The role of nursing management
Nursing management is an important part of hospital management. In a certain sense, the level of nursing management is one of the symbols to measure the scientific management level of the hospital, and it is also the epitome of the management level of the whole hospital.
Judging from the composition of hospital staff, nurses account for about one-third of the total number of hospitals, and health technicians account for half. They are the basic team of hospital diagnosis and treatment technology and play an important role in improving medical quality.
From the hospital management procedures and processes, nursing staff and directly managed departments account for nearly three-quarters of all departments in the hospital. From outpatient to ward, from emergency room to observation room, from operating room to supply room, from diagnosis and treatment, examination, treatment to diet, daily life and environment, there are a lot of nursing management in every link, which plays a very important role in hospital emergency management, ward management and material equipment management.
From the extensive relationship between nursing subsystem and other subsystems, nursing work has extensive relations with doctors, medical technology departments, general affairs and logistics departments, and preventive health care work, which has a great influence on the work of these systems.
