摘要

地区护士在社区为个人及其家庭和护理人员提供重要服务。随着护理工作的日益复杂和英国人口需求的变化，开发基于证据的劳动力和工作量工具至关重要。本文介绍了地区护理威尔士护理级别（DN WLoC）、严重程度和依赖性工具的开发、试点和实施情况，该工具旨在与护士的专业判断一起使用，以证明患者的严重程度和依赖性，并帮助为地区护理服务中的护士人员需求决策提供信息。初步试点成功实现了目标，并表明威尔士地区护士可在实践中使用 DN WLoC 工具草案，WLoC 工具在临床实践中应用的可靠性和有效性虽然有限，但结论是积极的。

The development and implementation of the district nursing Welsh Levels of Care Tool.

District nurses provide a vital service to individuals and their families and carers in the community. With increasing complexity of care and changes in the needs of the UK population, developing evidence-based workforce and workload tools which are fit for purpose is essential. This article describes the development, piloting and implementation of the District Nursing Welsh Levels of Care (DN WLoC), acuity and dependency tool which has been designed to be used alongside nurses professional judgment, to evidence the acuity and dependency of patients, and to help inform decisions of nurse staffing requirements in district nursing services. The initial pilot successfully achieved its objective and demonstrated that the draft DN WLoC tool is applicable in practice by district nurses across Wales, with limited but positive findings in the reliability and validity of the WLoC tool when applied in clinical practice.
