Three subcategories accounted for most of nursing practice time: documentation (35.3% 147.5 minutes), medication administration (17.2% 72 minutes), and care coordination (20.6% 86 minutes). More than three-quarters of all reported time was devoted to nursing practice. Results: A total of 767 nurses participated. Distance traveled was evaluated across types of unit design. Total distance traveled and energy expenditure were assessed. Main Outcome Measures: Nurses' time was divided into categories of activities (nursing practice, unit-related functions, nonclinical activities, and waste) and locations (patient room, nurse station, on-unit, off-unit).

The goal was to identify drivers of inefficiency in nursing work processes and nursing unit design.ĭesign: Nurses from 36 medical-surgical units were invited to participate in research protocols designed to assess how nurses spend their time, nurse location and movement, and nurse physiologic response. Objective: We undertook a time and motion study to document how nurses spend their time. Increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of nursing care is essential to hospital function and the delivery of safe patient care.
