Description

<p> This study assessed time savings and staff perceptions of benefits of the introduction of a home-visiting nursing business support system for nursing documentation. Using a self-administered questionnaire, 84 nurses at 16 home-visiting nursing care stations in the Tokai region were asked to record the time spent on document creation, their perceptions about the effects of the new system, and demographic information. The system was introduced on April 2012. First, the time spent on document creation before the introduction of the system (December 2012-January 2013) was measured. Second, it was measured 8 months after the system was introduced (January 2014). For home-visiting nurses, the mean (median) time spent on documentation was reduced from 88.0 (60.0) min/day to 71.4 (60.0) min/day, i.e., a mean (median) time of 16.6 (5.0) min/day was saved (p=0.02). These findings suggest that the system reduces the time spent on document creation for home-visiting nurses, but the nurses’ perceptions about the effects of introducing the system were not always high. For the successful introduction of a home-visiting nursing business support system for home-visiting nursing, it is necessary to provide the staff with sufficient training and support and to minimize system problems.</p>
