Nurse to Patient Ratio, Nurse Burnout and Patient Satisfaction

Care work can not be stopped. Imagine that you are a newly graduated nurse and for the first time put the newly discovered knowledge and skills into practice. The hospital stay is 3 days, which is the standard for admission nurses, but new graduates take 6 to 8 weeks to get hospitalized. This change has only just begun, we recorded eight patients for a new perception that we need to evaluate newly discovered pressure ulcers, a possible drug response, several new take off orders, and for various reasons.

Patients with adequate staff for the work environment, adequate management support, and nurses who have a positive relationship between doctors and nurses are satisfied with their care. Nurse's burnout and patient satisfaction studied the relationship between nurse burnout syndrome and patient satisfaction (Vahey, Aiken, Sloane, Clarke, & Vargas, 2004). This research took place at the time when the nurse's burnout and nurse's burden on the workplace environment were concerned due to the shortage of national nurses. The authors investigated 820 nurses and 621 patients in 20 US city hospitals in the United States and examined the relationship of nurse's work environment, nurse burnout, and satisfaction with patient care . They report that adequate staff, excellent management support, and patients with an active relationship between doctors and nurses in the workplace are satisfied with their care.

February 2004 - When the nurse is working with adequate staff, good care management support, and good relationships with their doctors, patients are more than twice as satisfied as care and nursing The teacher is not so much as reporting burnout syndrome. This is a study of 820 nurses and 621 patients from 40 units of 20 municipal hospitals in the United States. See also: Vahey DC, Aiken LH, Sloane DM, Clarke SP, Vargas D. (2004).
