Yes, fund Nursing and Midwifery degrees more so that there are more professionals available

 @97X92L6answered…1yr1Y

Yes because the acuity of patients is increasing with our ageing population.

 @93R3M8Yanswered…2yrs2Y

The optimal ratio is known but the quality of the staff is the issue

 @934GY58answered…2yrs2Y

 @9324Y8Yanswered…2yrs2Y

Same should include nursing homes nurse resident ratio x1 nurse to 4 persons

 @92Z9R5Qanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but more nurses need to be employed our hospitals need more bed nurses and Dr, especially in rural areas

 @92SSQ99Liberalanswered…2yrs2Y

Based off the skills of the combined average of the organisation is what the patient ratio should be.

 @92SPQBZanswered…2yrs2Y

This needs to be based on hours of care given, across the board ratios are not needed, however some areas require more nurses than others.

 @92FD37Janswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but this needs to be implemented across all hospital sites and wards, nursing wages are putrid, the whole system is broken

 @92FC8HBanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, and funnel all funding previously cancelled/defunded (ie, used to instead subsidise fossil fuel industries) to this initiative.

 @8ZFLJ5FGreenanswered…2yrs2Y

Nurse:patient ratios should be DECREASED (lower patient numbers is better!) which is what I think the question was actually asking but used the incorrect terminology

 @9232PDJanswered…2yrs2Y

This is not acheivable with the way hospitals are currently run, nurses are underpaid, overworked and stretched thin as is.

 @8ZV8LVVanswered…2yrs2Y

Nurse to Patient Ratio should be no higher than 1:4 in the day and 1:7 in the night

 @8ZSH8WQanswered…2yrs2Y

The medical and nursing staff should elevate each patients need with a baseline requirement that nurses are caring for not more then 5patiebts at a time

 @8ZLR7S5Laboranswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but the model should be 1:3 on general wards too. The population is getting older, we are being given an environment on high falls risk demented patients, violent intellectually impaired patients awaiting NDIS funding and bariatric patients. All nurses are burned out.

 @8Y63TBHLiberalanswered…2yrs2Y

More nurses are needed - see - 7 yr old girl died whilst waiting in ED to be treated ...at Perth Childrens Hosital

 @8XLFBGZLiberalanswered…2yrs2Y

dependent on patient requirement, funding model etc. question too simplistic
