Abstract：Objective:To analyze the distribution and trend of nursing human resource structure in Hainan Province from 2011 to 2021,in order to provide a certain reference basis for optimizing the allocation of nursing human resources in Hainan Province.Method:Descriptive statistics,Lorentz curve,Gini coefficient,and Thiel index were used to analyze the spatial distribution and development trend of nursing human resources in Hainan.Results:From 2011 to 2021,the Gini coefficient of registered nurses in Hainan Province was 0.158-0.218 based on population distribution;The Gini coefficients of the Wei area distribution are all between 0.4 and 0.5.The total Theil index of registered nurses based on population distribution is smaller than that based on area distribution.The contribution value of regional differences in the Theil index based on population distribution is greater than that of regional differences.The contribution value of regional differences in the Theil index based on area distribution is smaller than that of regional differences.Conclusions:The total amount of nursing human resources in Hainan Province increased year by year from 2011-2021.The fairness of nursing human resources distributed by population was good,and the allocation of nursing human resources distributed by area was relatively unfair;Regional differences are the main reason for the unfair allocation of nursing human resources based on population distribution,while regional differences are the main reason for the unfair allocation of nursing human resources based on area distribution.
