Description

<p>The objectives of this study are to examine how ward nurses working at medical institutions organize time during their daily duties, and to exploration thought factors involved in actual time management. A semi-structured interview was conducted with five ward nurses working at the neurosurgery departments of university hospitals. Data collected from the interview were supplemented with direct observations of the nurses while performing their duties. The results showed that thought factors involved in time management in nursing fall into four categories, namely, “Preference on the basis of the patient\'s course”, “Facilitation of team activities”, “Implementation of effective care” and “Improvement of work efficiency”. Furthermore, 13 sub-categories were extracted. It was suggested that inexperienced nurses require sufficient supervision to implement time management.</p>
