Time Study RN Description
In 2002, the Time Study RN was created as part of the Robert Wood Johnson initiative known as "Transforming Care at the Bedside" (TCAB), which emerged in response to the growing concern that advancements in technology, innovative unit designs, and new nursing processes were resulting in nurses spending diminished time with patients. Concurrently, healthcare organizations worldwide were inspired by successful applications of lean and Six Sigma principles from the manufacturing sector. Drawing on work activities from a time study research project conducted at Clarion Health and published by the Institute of Medicine, RMC collaborated with the pilot TCAB teams to identify 71 distinct work activities grouped into seven categories for TCAB measurement. Moreover, RMC played a crucial role in developing and integrating the necessary software and tools that became the foundation of the TCAB methodology for assessing bedside time. This comprehensive approach aimed not only to enhance patient care but also to foster a more efficient working environment for nurses.
