ICU Nurse-to-Patient Ratio Reporting

 

We are a 12-bed medical and surgical Intensive Care Unit specializing in the care of critically ill patients. Typically these patients require a high degree of medical and nursing care. They also require specialized equipment to help monitor and support their body systems. Starting with the first quarter of 2016, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) now requires all Massachusetts ICUs to report quarterly Registered Nurse-to-Patient ratios on their websites. Newton-Wellesley Hospital's ICU ratios are as follows:
