Staffing Ratios & Compliance

Oregon HB 2697 Unit Staffing Compliance Pack

The Oregon HB 2697 Unit Staffing Compliance Pack is an Excel workbook plus a printable QuickStart guide to it. The workbook's 2. Cited Law tab carries the two Oregon ratios the edition-stamped reference module holds as verified — intensive care 1:2 from June 2024, and medical/surgical 1:4 from June 2026 (was 1:5) — each with its citation (Oregon HB 2697 (2023); OAR ch. 333) and effective date, never retyped. On 3. Your Units you enter up to 40 units with census and nurses assigned; intensive care and medical/surgical units are measured against those ratios, and every other unit against the internal target you set. 4. Gap Analysis shows each unit's distance from its limit and 5. Dashboard reports mandate and target counts separately. The pack says plainly, on its Start Here and Cited Law tabs and in its glossary, that how Oregon's ratios bind is contested — the Oregon Health Authority's guidance describes enforcement where a ratio is incorporated into an approved hospital nurse staffing plan — so a "Below mandate" status here is not a finding of violation. Every census and staffing count is your own; nothing here is legal or compliance advice.

What's included

  • Excel workbook, seven tabs: Start Here, Setup, Cited Law, Your Units, Gap Analysis, Dashboard, Glossary & Sources
  • Cited Law: the Oregon ratios — intensive care 1:2 (from June 2024) and medical/surgical 1:4 (from June 2026, was 1:5) — with citation and effective date on each row
  • Your Units: up to 40 units — census and nurses assigned in; actual ratio, applicable limit and status out, with units that have no Oregon ratio measured against your internal target
  • The enforcement caveat on Start Here, Cited Law and the glossary: OHA's guidance ties enforcement to an approved nurse staffing plan, so 'Below mandate' is not a finding of violation
  • Gap Analysis and Dashboard: each unit's gap to its limit, with mandate and target counts reported separately
  • A row you have not marked complete reads 'Not entered', never a pass
  • A printable QuickStart PDF that walks through the workbook step by step
