Nursing Staffing Ratio Planning Template

Check your nurse-to-patient ratios against the law and your own targets, unit by unit. Enter each unit's type, census, and nurses on shift, and the template computes the actual ratio, the applicable limit, and a compliance status — measured against real, cited state mandates (California §70217, Oregon HB 2697, and Massachusetts ICU rules — the only shipped legal figures) and your internal target. A compliance dashboard and a prioritized gap analysis show exactly which units fall below the mandate or your target. This is planning guidance, not legal advice — verify the law with counsel. Pairs with the NursingWorkforce app.
