How do school nurses spend their time? A quantitative time study within Norwegian school health services
This study provides insights into how school nurses spend their time within Norwegian school health services and indicates a large variation in the time spent on different tasks. Future research should investigate the reasons behind these variations and analyze the content and interventions used in various activities. Although the study is conducted in a Norwegian context, the methods for describing time usage are applicable to other health sectors and countries.
