Condition Critical: Patients Pay Price for Nursing Shortage
--CNN: Your Health

Many of America’s hospitals are dangerously short staffed. Nurses are often forced to work overtime and asked to deliver care they are not qualified to provide. In almost all cases of understaffing, nurses are assigned more patients than they can safely handle—which can mean missed or incorrect medication, delays in care, patient accidents or worse.

Not being able to provide adequate care for patients has driven hundreds of thousands of qualified nurses out of nursing. Meanwhile hospitals are seeing an increase in the number of patients requiring greater care. This means that fewer nurses are responsible for a larger population of sicker patients.
