Description
Summary:Nursing metrics use indicators to make the outcomes of nursing care visible through measurement. Metrics must be sensitive to the context‐specific nature of nursing and should reflect the work that nurses really do. A workshop at the Building Children’s Nursing conference (2019) was convened to develop statements of nursing care outcomes and actions specific to the work of children’s nurses in African care settings, using the World Café method and the Nightingale Metrics approach. The process resulted in the development of statements as intended. Appropriate nursing metrics can guide data‐driven practice improvements and decision‐making about supporting the nursing workforce.
