A safe staffing tool has now been launched and it is designed to support the NHS and various emergency departments. There is hope that it is going to improve the outcome of the working environment for various staff members. The emergency department has been backed by the nursing staff officer and they have stressed that the staffing situation is in fact high on the agenda. Of course, having the right level of nursing staff is crucial when it comes to patient care. The new tool has been developed by the chief nurses and it has been licensed by the Imperial College in London. It is very similar to those that are now available in settings that include inpatient wards as well as in mental health settings. If you work in homecare or if you work in private nursing then you will know what a fantastic solution this is. Those who are backing the initiative have stated that the tool is in fact been developed even further to try and make sure that staffing levels are suited to adult and children. Safe staffing is very high on the agenda and of course, emergency departments are not an exception at all.

The innovative tool is very simple to use and it is designed to help nursing officers and even emergency departments to make decisions that are based on evidence. It was designed to help improve the outcome for patients who need emergency departments. It’s also going to greatly help to improve the departments for emergency staff.

This is major to say the least and it just goes to show how imperative it is that people are able to access care from nurses who are not understaffed or under pressure. This movement hopes to ensure that the correct changes are made.
