摘要：

Community nursing organisations worldwide seek optimal ways to ensure adequate measurement of health outcomes for the client following nursing care, and to facilitate a consumer focus. This article presents a trial of the Client Generated Index (CGI) tool that subjectively assesses and measures the quality of life outcomes pertaining to a client's hearth status, whilst also facilitating individualised care. Sixty district nursing clients participated in the trial, which ascertained that the CGI tool effectively directs the client to list, grade and prioritise personally relevant quality of life issues. Consequently, this tool is being incorporated into client admission and discharge assessment within the organisation. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
