According to research from Johns Hopkins University , nearly 800,000 Americans become permanently disabled or die due to a misdiagnosis every year. One of the most effective ways to reduce this number is by focusing on patientsafety in nursing. What is patientsafety in nursing?
But the effect of long nurse work hours on patientsafety is an area of concern. Despite the perks of a 12-hour workday, the impacts of 12-hour vs. eight-hour nursing shifts on patient outcomes can be significant. Many concerns with 12-hour shifts are tied to nurse overtime and patientsafety.
Healthcare workforce safety depends on both nurse safety and patientsafety. Patients depend on competent, compassionate care, physical security, and the satisfaction of knowing they’re well cared for. Conversely, inadequate staffing negatively impacts nurse safety and patientsafety.
