51. How much of the burden can Nurses take?


Listen Later

Having worked as nurse for so many years this is a topic that is close to my heart. As we continue to re-visit our most popular episodes it's great to see that you also found it really interesting.

In this episode I emphasized the significance of nurse-to-patient ratios in the healthcare sector, underscoring the negative impact on nurses when they are overloaded with patients. I highlighted the potential for psychological harm, burnout, errors, and substandard care, and noted that many states and national legislatures were reviewing safe staffing ratios.

As always with this topic I want to stress that the issue is not only about patient safety, but also about the welfare of nurses.
