The Effects of a Clinical Care Model on Quality Process Outcomes in Radiation Oncology
Postimplementation, patient rooming by RNs decreased, documentation of side effect education increased, and all RNs reported top-of-license practice often/always. Physicians reported improvement in moderate/strong ratings for RN and clinic scheduler expertise and nursing care quality. These results suggest that enhanced clinical care models can improve quality process outcomes in radiation oncology.
