This experience report aimed at showing the use of the variable on nursing support time as a people management indicator. To
obtain and systematically evaluate the data, one created an Excel worksheet and used the equations proposed in the Gaidzinski’s method
on personnel size. The support time data according to the care category were compared to the standard established by COFEN (Federal
Nursing Council) Resolution N. 293/04, allowing the nursing service manager to monitor the qualitative and quantitative compliance
of the existing picture. The information derived from the indicator on average support time subsidizes the proposition of interventions
that assure the support quality improvement and the safety of patients and nursing professionals.
