Abstract: Objective: To construct the "Internet+" home nursing quality evaluation index system, in order to provide evidences for the standardization and homogeneity development of "Internet+" home-based nursing. Methods: Based on the structure-process-outcome three-dimension quality assessment model, the draft of "Internet+" home nursing quality index was prepared by combing through relevant policies, analyzing literature papers, semi-structured interview and consulting experts. Finally the "Internet+" home nursing quality index system was established through three rounds of expert letter consultation and analytic hierarchy process. Results: Three rounds of correspondence consultation were conducted from September to October, 2021. The effective recovery rate of the questionnaires during the three rounds were 100.00% (21/21), 90.48% (19/21) and 95.24% (20/21), respectively. The expert authority coefficients were 0.88, 0.87 and 0.92 and the Kendall harmony coefficients were 0.195, 0.211 and 0.219 (P<0.01). The final "Internet+" home nursing quality evaluation index system includes 3 first-level indicators, 8 second-level indicators and 40 third-level indicators. Conclusion: The "Internet+" home nursing quality evaluation index is scientific and reliable to provide reference for "Internet+" home nursing quality evaluation and monitoring.
