Identifying descriptions of quality nursing care shared by nurse and patient in the acute care hospital environment

Nursing care is considered a primary predictor of patient assessment of the overall
hospital experience. Yet, quality nursing care remains difficult to define. Limited
research about nurse or patient perspectives on what constitutes quality nursing care in
hospital settings prevents the identification of a shared description or insight into their
possible interrelationship. Research about nurse and patient descriptions is needed to
establish behaviors, attributes, and activities associated with quality nursing care to
improve the health and well-being of hospitalized patients. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2015. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection
