Minimum nurse staffing ratios for nursing homes.

Ning Jackie Zhang1, Lynn Unruh, Rong Liu, Thomas T H Wan.   

Abstract

The authors explored minimum nurse staffing ratios for nursing homes using production function simulations. Minimum levels of registered nurse hours per resident day were 0.31, 1.83, and 3.3 at 50%, 75%, and 90% levels of quality respectively. These results suggest that efficiency-oriented minimum nurse staffing points exist, and could be used to inform policymakers and nursing home administrators on better resource allocation and health care delivery.
