title: Expert panel method for nurse staffing and resource management.
abstract: The Expert Panel Nurse Staffing and Resource Management Method is a bold new approach for the identification of nurse staffing requirements and the management of resources. Expert panels comprised of those most knowledgeable of the patient population and the uniqueness of specific patient care areas identify staff needed to meet clinical, administrative, education, continuous quality improvement, and research needs. In addition, the expert panels explore opportunities for systems improvements, work redesign, and administrative restructuring within the context of budgetary realities.
