Author Chadwick, A.; Hope, A.
Title In pursuit of the named nurse Type Journal Article
Year 2000 Publication Australasian Journal of Neuroscience Abbreviated Journal
Volume 13 Issue 4 Pages 6-9
Keywords (down) Advanced nursing practice; Hospitals; Evaluation; Nurse-family relations; Nurse-patient relations
Abstract This paper outlines the project outcomes, benefits, impact and constraints of introducing the named nurse concept to a neuro-services department. The concept of the named nurse was first introduced in the UK, in 1992, with the aim of supporting the partnership in care between the patient and the nurse. The evidence for the effectiveness of introducing the named nurse concept is largely anecdotal. In line with the hospital wide policy of implementing the named nurse concept at Auckland Hospital, a six-month pilot study was undertaken within the Neuro-services Department. The aims of the study were to foster a partnership in care with patients / whanau and the multidisciplinary team, to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of delivery of nursing care, and to contribute to continuous quality improvement. The results highlighted that, in theory, the named nurse concept would be effective in providing quality co-ordinated care, however factors were identified that hindered the effectiveness of its implementation. Therefore, further development of the concept was required.
