Get on the Bus for Safe Hospitals

Wednesday, October 24, 2007

 

Support the Patient Safety Act (H. 2059)!  It would dramatically improve
hospital care by having the Massachusetts Department of Public Health set a
safe limit on the number of patients assigned to a nurse and adjust such
staffing ratios based on patient needs.  It also bans mandatory overtime and
includes initiatives to increase nursing faculty and nurse recruitment.

"http://www.protectmasspatients.org/"www.protectmasspatients.org.  During
the last legislative session, the House of Representatives passed a similar
bill by 133-20.
