ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This study was performed to analyze financial ratios and nursing productivity and to interpret comparisons of financial standard ratios.METHODS:
The financial statements of 21 tertiary general hospitals were collected from the webpage of the National Tax Service in Korea. General characteristics of the hospitals were acquired from their webpages.RESULTS:
The results obtained were compared with the financial standard ratios of Korean hospitals. The majority of hospitals showed poor liquidity, performance, turnover, and growth. Nursing productivity was measured by calculating annual value added per nurse (₩ 39,746,938) and annual gross revenues per nurses (₩ 65,803,550).CONCLUSION:
Interestingly, although the financial ratios were generally poor, nursing productivities were very good. Nurse managers can suggest increasing nursing staff levels based on high nursing productivity despite poor financial conditions.
