Abstract
2Improving patient safety and care quality in long-term care (LTC) settings requires maintaining ideal nursing staffing ratios. This study examines the complex link between nursing staffing levels and care outcomes in long-term care (LTC) facilities by synthesizing findings from an extensive literature analysis and empirical investigations. The study of the literature emphasizes how important registered nurse staffing is in determining the standard and effectiveness of patient care. Concerns raised by nurses regarding dangerous staffing ratios in long-term care institutions emphasize how urgent it is to solve staffing issues in order to reduce hazards and enhance safety. Systematic evaluations highlight the requirement for sufficient staffing to prevent care delivery omissions by showing a consistent correlation between nurse staffing levels and missed nursing care. Empirical studies also show how staffing affects turnover rates, which emphasizes the significance of staffing ratio optimization for improving service continuity and quality in long-term care settings. This research offers useful insights into the intricate interactions between nursing staffing ratios, patient safety, and care quality in long-term care (LTC) facilities by combining evidence from various studies. As a result, policymakers, administrators, and healthcare providers can use this information to optimize staffing practices and enhance outcomes for LTC residents.
