  • 840 New Nurses: Nurse-To-Patie Nt Ratios
    840 New Nurses: NURSE-TO-PATIE NT RATIOS A Foley Labor Government will introduce nurse-to-patient ratios into emergency departments and paediatric wards – in the first term of government. This means NSW Labor will employ 840 new nurses – comprising 735 additional nurses in emergency departments and 105 additional nurses in paediatric wards. This will benefit 75 emergency department and paediatric wards in NSW hospitals. Under the model, there will be one nurse for every three patients in: • Every A, B and C peer group hospital emergency department in NSW; and • Every A, B and C peer group hospital paediatric ward in the state. In addition, there will be one nurse for every resuscitation bed in emergency departments. This will be done within the first term of a Labor Government. The policy will cost an estimated $96 million over the forward estimates. In addition, a Foley Labor Government will legislate to enshrine nurse-to-patient ratios in law – for the first time in NSW. This will require future governments and health officials to ensure that nurse numbers are protected by law and cannot be traded away. The policy will result in more nurses in emergency departments and paediatric wards to improve patient care, save lives and reduce waiting times. It is about taking the pressure off staff and patients in our State’s over-stretched emergency departments and providing more care for children in our paediatric wards across NSW. We value the extraordinary work of our State’s hardworking nurses and midwives. NSW Labor has a strong record of supporting nurses, and we understand that nurses are best placed to know what staffing levels are needed to provide safe and efficient care.
