Nurse patient ratios are changing rapidly. In fact California has already legislated that as of 2007 the ratio for a typical med-surg floor is 4:1 Studies have found that when nurses are properly able to assess plan implement and teach the patient, readmissions and mortality rates decrease. Presently hospitals in California are finding that they do not have the staff to fill the nursing demand and as the practice of safer nurse patient rations travels eastward the demand for nurse will increase.
With the nursing shortage quickly approaching, research shows that the average age of an RN today is approximately 47. By 2020 the estimated U.S. shortage of registered nurses will increase to
340, 0000. The need for knowledgeable adaptable skilled nursed will increase by three times the current rate over the next 13 years.
