Abstract: (907 Views)
Background and purpose: One of the main challenges of human resource management in hospitals is the proper distribution of nurses, which is necessary to improve the efficiency and quality of health services. In this review, this rate is compared in selected countries and Iran in order to provide the necessary evidence for managers and policymakers in human resource management
Materials and Methods: This study was conducted as a field review in 2019 with the aim of comparing the standards of nurse distribution to beds/wards in selected studies. The search was conducted with related keywords in "Scopus", "Web of Science", "PubMed" databases without a time limit.
Results: The distribution of nursing per bed was reported in Australia, England, Northern Ireland, Wales, Israel, America, California, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. In Iran, the rate of nurses to intensive beds was slightly higher than the average and the ratio of nurses to ordinary and emergency beds was lower than the average of selected countries average.
Conclusion: Nurses' distribution was generally lower than the average of other countries, and this ratio was lower in some sectors and higher than the average in some sectors. Recruitment and redistribution of the appropriate nurse in different sectors by benchmarking successful countries are suggested.
