Did you know that providing residents in long-term care settings with 30 to 40 minutes of RN care per day could prevent adverse outcomes such as pressure ulcers, urinary tract infections, weight loss, hospitalizations, and deterioration in ability to perform activities of daily living? In doing so, healthcare costs could be reduced by as much as $3,200 per resident/year!
Staffing is, quite possibly, one of the most talked-about topics in health care. This program will provide you with important advice--whether your concerns revolve around the liabilities of insufficient staffing; steps to reduce these liabilities and improve your staffing sufficiency; or what the research says about the relationship between nurse staffing and the quality and cost of care.
Staffing Matters: Liability, Research, and Patient Outcomes provides further evidence of the critical link between nurse staffing and safety and quality of care and guides viewers in short and long-term strategies to protect patients and caregivers.
