Abstract:
With the increasing dimension of medical
sciences, nursing care is becoming more and more
complex with its management services. This study
aimed to evaluate the implementation of Nursing
Service Operations in Maguindanao Provincial
Hospital in terms of Emergency Room and Inpatient services, the processes followed in terms
of Triaging, Profiling, Admission, Treatment,
and Discharging, and the patients’ status such as
Admission to Ward and Discharge from Care. The
study utilized a descriptive-evaluative method using
a researcher-made survey questionnaire to 255
respondents comprising 107 hospital staff and 148 discharged patients. Data
were analyzed using the weighted mean. Results revealed that Emergency Room (ER) and In-patient services were highly implemented. There was a very high
implementation process for nursing services for triaging, profiling, treatment,
and discharge, except for a high admission process. Also, the patient’s status
regarding admission to the ward for emergency room services was high, while
discharge from care for in-patient services was moderate. Regarding problems
encountered, it was revealed that the MPH needed more staffed nurses, cultural
health beliefs, language barriers, lack of continuous education, delayed salary,
etc. Hence, the Maguindanao Provincial Hospital adhered to the guidelines in
the DOH Administrative Order 2012-0012; however, certain provisions must be
complied with to deliver emergency room and in-patient services effectively and
efficiently
