| Super Moderator | California:Hospitals scrambling to meet nurse rati Wednesday, April 6, 2005: California: Hospitals scrambling to meet nurse ratio:"California hospitals are struggling to meet a new, first-in-the-nation requirement that they have one nurse on duty for every five patients at all times, and officials say most institutions are falling short. Some hospitals have tried to close the gap by hiring nurses from outside agencies and making staffers work more hours. Others are closing beds or keeping people longer in the emergency room to prevent other parts of the hospital from becoming overcrowded." http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/nation...ug=Nurse%20Law ************************************************** **** Andrew Lopez, RN http://www.4nursing.com |
