pubmed:abstractText |
A three-stage Delphi investigation was undertaken over a 4-month period in a primary care trust to identify the perceived clinical needs of nurses. Practice nurses, district nurses, health visitors and community hospital nurses all participated. In round 1, there were 28 replies from these groups of nurses, in round 2 there were 31, and in round 3 there were 25 replies. In round 1, 77 issues (excluding duplications) were identified. These were separated into three themes according to the most appropriate method for addressing the issue: education (29 issues), research (16 issues) and management (32). In round 2, the issues were redistributed in the three areas and staff were asked to choose the ten most important issues from education, research and management. Finally, in round 3 the ten issues in education, research and management were prioritized in terms of the "most pressing". The most pressing education need was recognizing accountability; the most pressing research need was caseload/dependency scoring--matching staff levels to workload, and the most pressing management need was risk management, e.g. staff safety. The results have identified locally that there is a gap between the modernization agenda and what nursing staff consider to be the issues that need addressing locally. If measures are not put in place to address these local issues, there is a danger that nurses will not take a full and active role in the modernization of the NHS.
