Aplicabilidad del Control Interno en el ejercicio de la Enfermería.

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present the results of a study entitled Analysis of the Risk Management Internal Control through Nursing. The participant population corresponded to 9 Professional Nursing, 23 nursing assistants, 11 technical assistants Primary Care (ATAPS) and 3 Auxiliary Nursing. This was approved by the School of Nursing at the University of Costa Rica in 2006 as a final work for graduation. We developed a qualitative methodology, using the technique of observation for the development of internal monitoring tools to collect data. Through the creation and implementation of two tools for troubleshooting could assess the risk in the nursing and personal impact on the services provided. We conclude that the lack of nursing staff, infrastructure, environment and inadequate work environment affect the provision of health services as well as recipients.
