Key indicators of performance (KPI) can be used to show the contribution of each employee or department/department to productivity in areas where quality or effectiveness can be measured. Performance indicators are usually agreed at the national or local level. When choosing a performance indicator for a nursing service, an analysis of the recommendations for testing effectiveness was required. As part of the introduction of a new model of management of nursing services in the Republic of Kazakhstan in 2018, the working group developed key indicators of performance assessment of the nursing service in order to try to demonstrate the impact of nursing on the quality of care. In 2019, in order to monitor the activities of nursing specialists in pilot medical organizations, work was carried out to assess the performance indicators of nursing specialists. These indicators were aimed at assessing the structure of nursing services, nursing process and the results of activities of nursing specialists in organizations providing outpatient and inpatient care.
