NJ Public Wants Beefed Up Staffing, More Hospital Inspections, Nurses Contend

From NJ Spotlight, March 13, 2015

New Jersey hospitals should have more nurses working each shift – and the state should inspect those hospitals yearly.

That’s what people in the state want, at least according to a poll commissioned by the state’s largest nurses’ union, which is using the results to bolster its case for changing state laws and regulations.

Of 400 registered voters polled last month, 73 percent said they supported having a law that would set a maximum number of patients per nurse, while 20 percent opposed the idea.

…“The public connects quality of care to the number of nurses that provide the care, and that’s a crucial issue for us,” said Ann Twomey, president of the Health Professionals and Allied Employees (HPAE). “You hear about (how) people trust nurses. Well, this poll verified that fact as well.”
