South Africa take note: Employing more nurses can slash total health costs, study suggests Tiyese Jeranji for Spotlight © Copyright (c) Daily Maverick , All Rights Reserved
A study conducted across 55 hospitals in Queensland suggests that a recent state policy to introduce a minimum ratio of one nurse to four patients for day shifts has successfully improved patient care, with a 7% drop in the chance of death and readmission and a 3% reduction in length of stay for every one less patient a nurse has on their workload. These reductions resulted in the cost savings.
The study compared 27 hospitals where the policy was implemented with 28 hospitals where it wasn’t.
