Case for hospital nurse-to-patient ratio legislation in Queensland, Australia, hospitals: an observational study by Carol Windsor, Patsy Yates, Linda H Aiken, Clint Douglas, Matthew D McHugh

“…Objectives To determine whether there was variation in nurse staffing across hospitals in Queensland prior to implementation of nurse-to-patient ratio legislation targeting medical-surgical wards, and if so, the extent to which nurse staffing variation was associated with poor outcomes for patients and nurses.Design Analysis of cross-sectional data derived from nurse surveys linked with admitted patient outcomes data.Setting Public hospitals in Queensland.Participants 4372 medical-surgical nurses and 146 456 patients in 68 public hospitals.Main outcome measures 30-day mortality, quality and safety indicators, nurse outcomes including emotional exhaustion and job dissatisfaction.Results Medical-surgical nurse-to-patient ratios before implementation of ratio legislation varied significantly across hospitals (mean 5.52 patients per nurse; SD=2.03). After accounting for patient characteristics and hospital size, each additional patient per nurse was associated with 12% higher odds of 30-day mortality (OR=1.12; 95% CI 1.01 to 1.26). …”
