Article:
Sand-Jecklin, K. & Sherman, J. (2014). A quantitative assessment of patient and
nursing outcomes of bedside nursing report implementation. Journal of Clinical
Nursing, 23, 2854- 2863.
The purpose of this study was to quantify the benefits of bedside nurse shift reporting. Given the
inadequacies of past studies, a larger sample size was utilized to enhance the statistical
significance of the results.
Research Design A “quasi-experimental pre- and post-implementation design
was used (San-Jecklin & Sherman, 2014, p. 2854).” This
model was used to determine a cause-and-effect relationship
between nurse bedside shift reporting and multiple
patient/family satisfaction indicators along with an increase
or decrease in patient safety (San-Jecklin & Sherman, 2014).
Sample Selection 233 patients completed the ‘Patient Views on Nursing Care’
survey at baseline (San-Jecklin & Sherman, 2014). 157
patients completed the three-month follow-up survey, and
154 patients completed the 13-month follow-up survey (San-
Jecklin & Sherman, 2014). For patients, unable to finish the
questionnaire and as established in the research protocols 70
patient family members completed questionnaires at baseline
with 72 completing the three-month follow-up survey and 53
completing the 13-month follow-up survey (San-Jecklin &
Sherman, 2014). 148 nurses completed the ‘Nurse
Assessment of Shift Report’ survey at baseline, with 98
nurses completing the three-month follow-up survey and 54
nurses completing the 13-month follow-up survey (San-
Jecklin & Sherman, 2014).
Data Collection Methods Data was collected at baseline using the ‘Patient Views on
Nursing Care’ patient survey tool (San-Jecklin & Sherman,
2014). This survey was distributed anonymously through
