title: Work redesign: a return to the basics.
abstract: Through a work redesign project, one hospital focuses on the root of the nursing care delivery system. The premise was simple--a return to the basics to redefine barriers, needed system changes, and role responsibilities. Successful outcomes include improved recruitment and retention as well as increased patient, staff and community satisfaction.
