Construction of an evaluation index system of core competence of nursing staff in the elderly care institutions based on Delphi method of medical-nursing combined care

  Objective  To construct an evaluation index system of core competence of nursing staff in the elderly care institutions based on medical-nursing combined care.

  Methods  The evaluation index system was established by literature review, semi-structured interview, Delphi expert consultation and analytic hierarchy process.

  Results  The effective recovery rate of two rounds of Delphi expert consultation was 100%, the expert authority coefficient was 0.925, and the expert coordination coefficient was 0.230, which showed that the degree of enthusiasm, authority and coordination of the selected experts were higher. The evaluation index system of the core competence of nurse in the elderly care institutions based on medical-nursing combined care was ultimately established.

  Conclusion  The evaluation index system of the core competence of nursing staff in the elderly care institutions based on medical-nursing combined care is confirmed by Delphi expert consultation method, and provides basis for further training and evaluation.
