What is Time Study RN?

In 2002, the Time Study RN was established as an element of the Robert Wood Johnson initiative called "Transforming Care at the Bedside" (TCAB), which arose from increasing worries that technological advancements, innovative unit designs, and evolving nursing processes were leading to a decline in the time nurses could spend with their patients. At the same time, healthcare institutions around the globe were motivated by the successful implementation of lean and Six Sigma methodologies that originated in the manufacturing industry. By utilizing work activities from a time study research project carried out at Clarion Health and published by the Institute of Medicine, RMC collaborated with the initial TCAB teams to pinpoint 71 unique work activities, categorizing them into seven groups for TCAB measurement. Additionally, RMC was instrumental in the creation and integration of essential software and tools that formed the backbone of the TCAB methodology for evaluating bedside time. This multifaceted strategy not only sought to improve patient care but also aimed to create a more streamlined and effective working environment for nurses, ultimately benefiting both staff and patients alike. The initiative represented a significant shift in how nursing care was approached, emphasizing the need for balance between efficiency and patient interaction.
