New Report Analyzes the State of Nurse Staffing in New York
New data analysis from the report finds that a majority of hospitals fail to publicly post all staffing plans and actual daily staffing levels in all units of the hospital, as the law requires. It also finds that surveyed hospitals failed to staff ICU and critical care patients at the 1:2 nurse-to-patient ratio mandated by the staffing law more than 50% of the time.
