The Workload Action Measures Method (WAMM) is a predictive model of care workload for individual patients. The Clinical Care Classification Information Model quantifies nursing workload combining two aspects of nursing practice by measuring a patient's specific nursing service time using relative value units and a patient's disease condition using the intensity of four Healthcare Patterns/Care Components. WAMM provides reliable workload calculations for disease conditions combined with Nursing Interventions Actions.
