Staffing is short, patients are sicker! We need lawmakers to ensure hospital care is safe for patients and providers! Enact safe staffing ratios!
Why is this important?
The demands on nurses and hospital staff have been terribly risky! The potential for harm, injury and even death to our patients is at all-time highs due to reductions in staff. The grids used are numbers based regardless of the acuity of our patients, resembling a factory assembly line! Health care is personal and individual, we need our time back to care for and heal our communities! Nurses and healthcare staff are burning out and leaving the profession, which is detrimental to us all now and in the future! Enact safe staffing ratios now!
