Campaign for Patient Safety and Safe Staffing
New Jersey is in a public health crisis created by hospital corporations forcing direct care staff to do more with less while increasing profits. Healthcare workers have absorbed as much extra work as they possibly can; current conditions are pushing them to retire early or just quit bedside patient care.
Direct care staff are leaving the bedside in unprecedented numbers because the working conditions are so horrific due to chronic understaffing. Tell NJ policymakers to pass “The Patient Protection and Safe Staffing Act” (S2700 and A3683) into law to address the failure of hospitals to retain staff and save patients’ lives.
