# Developing performance indicators for a selected hospital department

Developing performance indicators for a selected hospital department

For any Selected Hospital Department
Or
Any Medical condition
select a set of ten indicators ( 2 structure, 4 process and 4
outcome) clarifying the following;
1. The rational for the selection of those indicators
2. Specify the literature references for the indicators mentioned
3. Define each of the selected indicators with respect to type
(structure, process or outcome) and the equation to calculate
the indicator for process and outcome indicators
4. Define Data collection plan in terms of
i. Collection frequency
ii. Data Sources
iii. Method
And each indicator except the structure should have a numerator and denominator
I have chosen the topic ‘Emergency department bed turnover’
But I am open to another department or suggestion
Each indicator needs to be specified thoroughly (e.g for who? nurses, specialists?) And a rationale for each indicator with a reference
If satisfaction is in an indicator there should be a questionnaire
Also there should be the following:
The numerator and denominator for ALL indicator (except structure indicators)
The reference from which you abstracted your indicator and wrote its rational
Set of references should be written beneath each indicator. at least 1 reference for each indicator
