Abstract:
This research aims to investigate the impact of nurse staffing levels on patient safety and quality of care. Adequate nurse staffing is crucial for ensuring optimal patient outcomes and preventing adverse events in healthcare settings. This study will explore the relationship between nurse staffing levels and patient safety indicators, such as medication errors, falls, and hospital-acquired infections. Additionally, it will examine the influence of nurse staffing on patient satisfaction and overall quality of care. The findings of this research will contribute to evidence-based recommendations for nurse staffing policies and practices to enhance patient safety and improve the quality of care.
