Annual Review of Nursing
Services Staffing Plan

NH Nurse Staffing Toolkit 2010
Annual Review
•
Core principles mandate at least a yearly review by the
hospital-wide nursing staffing committee:
A. Ensure the most current nursing services staffing plan does all of
the following:
1)
2)
3)
4)
Improve inpatient care outcomes;
Positively affects clinical management;
Facilitates cost-effective quality nursing care
Remains consistent with acceptable and prevailing standards of safe
nursing care and evidenced-based guidelines established by national
nursing organizations.
B. Make recommendations, based on the most recent review
conducted, regarding how the most current nursing services
staffing plan should be revised, if at all.

• Use data you have that is consistent
with what you require for credible
metrics and adds value to the
analysis
• Assess data that is currently
collected for required reporting,
voluntary reporting or internal quality
(outcome and process) purposes

Evidence Based Outcomes
• Needleman & Buerhaus et al.
(2001) Strong consistent
relationships between nurse
staffing and
–
–
–
–
–
–
UTI,
pneumonia,
LOS,
UGI bleeds
shock.
In major surgical patients failure
to rescue was also related to
nurse staffing.
• Cho et al. (2003) An increase
of 1 HPPD was associated with
– 8.9% decrease in odds of
pneumonia,
– 10% increase in RN proportion
was associated with 9.5%
decrease in odds of pneumonia,
– increased nursing HPPD > higher
probability of pressure ulcers
Evidence Based Outcomes
• Aiken et al. (2002) Each
additional patient cared
for by a nurse was
associated with
– a 7% increase likelihood
of dying within 30 days of
admission, and
– a 7% increase in failure to
rescue rates,
– a 23% increase in nurse
burnout
– a 15% increase in job
dissatisfaction.
• Rogers et al. (2004) Errors
and near errors more
likely to occur when nurses
work >12 hours.
Evidence Based Outcomes
2007 AHRQ Report
• Increased RN to Patient Ratios was associated with
decreased hospital mortality, LOS, failure to rescue (but
not necessarily causal)
• For every increase 1 RN FTE per patient day, decrease in
mortality in ICU by 9% and in surgical patients by 16%.
• For Every additional patient per RN per shift—
– 7% increase risk of hospital acquired pneumonia
– 45% increased risk of unplanned extubation
– 17% increased risk of medical complications
Evidence Based Outcomes
2007 AHRQ Report
• An increase of 1 RN FTE per day in ICU
–
–
–
–
28% decrease in risk of CPR,
51% decrease in risk of unplanned extubation,
60% decrease risk of pulmonary failure
30% decreased risk of hospital acquired pneumonia
• An increase of 1 RN FTE per day in Surgery
patients
– 16% decreased risk of failure to rescue,
– 30% decreased risk of nosocomial blood stream
infections
Evidence Based Outcomes
2007 AHRQ Report
• Death rate decreased by 1.98% for every additional
total nurse hour per day.
• Nurse satisfaction and autonomy was associated
with reduction of risk of death.
• Increased nurse turnover was associated with a
0.2% increase in falls.
• No research on the effect of agency or temporary
staff or international nurses in staffing.

Don’t Reinvent the Wheel
• Use data you have that is consistent with what the
statute requires and adds value to the analysis
• Assess data that is currently collected for required
reporting, voluntary reporting or internal quality
(outcome and process) purposes
• As new measures of performance are
added/required consider incorporating them into the
annual review process
