The Strategic Impact of Clinical Practice Guidelines in Nursing on the Managerial Function of Supervision

The Strategic Impact of Clinical Practice Guidelines in Nursing on the Managerial Function of Supervision

Jose Antonio Vinagre Romero, Carmen De-Pablos-Heredero

Clinical practice guidelines in nursing (CPG-N) are tools that allow the necessary knowledge that frequently remains specialist-internalised to be made explicit. These tools are a complement to risk adjustment systems (RAS), reinforcing their effectiveness and permitting a rationalisation of healthcare costs. This theoretical study defends the importance of building and using CPG-Ns as instruments to support the figure of the nursing supervisor in order to optimise the implementation of R&D and hospital quality strategies, enabling clinical excellence in nursing processes and cost-efficient reallocation of economic resources through their linear integration with SARs.
