Assessment of Nursing Management Capacity in West Bengal

Dear all,
This was the study which proposed the independent midwifery practioner course in India. Same study was followed in Uttar Pradesh.

Some of the Recommendations (page number 61)
The professional bodies need to apply more concern for protecting the rights of nursing personnel and this also needs more gender sensitivity among the policy planners. This also requires suitable laws, if needed, to be enacted.
ü  The State Directorate should have a separate Nursing Division and preferably to be headed by a nursing professional at the post of 'Director Nursing' or its equivalent. The senior most nursing post must have total autonomy in decision-making and to be member of all policy making bodies dealing with health and family welfare issues.
ü  The West Bengal Nursing Branch can act as a model for an adequately staffed Nursing Division.
ü  The structure of the Nursing Division to have the separate posts of Joint Directors/Additional Directors each for nursing services, nursing education and training and public health nursing/community nursing.
ü  The structure of the Nursing Division to have the separate posts of Joint Directors/Additional Directors each for nursing services, nursing education and training and public health nursing/community nursing.
ü  The nursing personnel interviewed, all required the uniformity in the pay scale particularly in reference to the central scales.
ü  ACR and performance appraisal needs reform to give due recognition to the conduction and documentation of research carried out by nursing personnel. The criteria for work performance should be objectively linked to the job profile.
ü  For effective manpower planning and development for nursing, its extremely important to develop the human resource (HR) policy which will take into consideration future human resource planning for nurses. The HR policy also to focus on developing guidelines for training and development of the nurses keeping in view the demand generation.

ü  The career path should provide flexible opportunities i.e. the transfer from service delivery side to educational and vice versa. But the transfer and placement should be supported by the requisite skill development.
