title: Community Health Nursing Outcomes Inventory.
abstract: The Community Health Nursing Outcomes Inventory (CHNOI) is a 48-item assessment instrument that measures client and nurse outcomes in community settings. The objective of this study was to test the psychometric properties and feasibility of the CHNOI. Results suggest that the CHNOI is an instrument that efficiently measures outcomes sensitive to nursing care in health services research. Managers and researchers may find this instrument useful to assess a community health program's effectiveness.
