•The American Nursing Association (ANA) stated that one of the specific hallmarks of an environment that supports professional nursing practice is one in which nurse staffing patterns have an adequate number of qualified nurses to meet patients’ needs (Marshall, E., & Broome, M. 2017).
•Staffing shortages are contributing to:
•Decreased retention rates of staff
•Decline in quality of patient care provided
•Decreased patient satisfaction
•Increased stress and burnout among nurses
•Incivility in the workplace
