The general staff shortage in nursing affects my work place too, but a bit less than others since we belong to the AWO. I was recently told that there used to be 3 people in the nights, but after one of the higher-ups had to work at a very calm night, they decided to cut the third one to have more staff in the day shifts. According to a teacher at my nursing school, the patient:nurse ratio is different for nights. It’s 50:1, means my nursing home is still narrowly within the guidelines.
