Predictive Model to Determine Need for Nursing Workforce

Abstract: This article describes a statistical modeling study designed to improve targets of need for registered nurse (RN) workforce. The model is place-based and incorporates the concepts of clinical need and regional service utilization. A cross-sectional study was conducted in Nebraska (1993-1999), and the unit of study was the county (N = 66). A mixed-model approach was used, and five predictor variables (% age 20-44,% age 45-64,% age 65+,% White non-Hispanic, and area) were significantly (p < .001) associated w… Show more

“…For states that are largely rural like Nebraska, where 27 of 93 counties do not have a hospital, underestimating the rural RN shortage is problematic. (It should be noted that this study also examined only those counties with hospitals; however, this was because the intent of this study was to focus only on application of Phase 2 of the "Predictive Model to Determine Need for Nursing Workforce" by Cramer et al, 2004, to determine differences between need for RN workforce and the actual numbers of RNs employed and by geographic setting. )…”

“…Without adequate RN workforce targets that are based on the concept of need, it will be difficult to obtain appropriate funding for important initiatives like nursing education loans, scholarships, or graduate student stipends (Courtney, 2005;Cramer et al, 2004). Moreover, the targets of need must be geographically specific so as to provide necessary additional assistance for schools in rural areas or for students who agree to work in rural areas.…”
