Nursing Quality Measures
Nurse Staffing Actual
What this means:
Number of Nursing Staff - Number of RN's, LPN's and HCT providing direct nursing care.
Percent of Nursing Staff - Number of RN's, LPN's and HCT providing direct nursing care / Total number of RN's, LPN's and HCT's providing direct nursing care.
Nursing hours per patient day (NHPPD) - Number of hours of direct care a patient can expect to receive from an RN, LPN, HCT, in a 24-hour period.
RN Hours Per Patient Day (RNHPPD) - Number of hours of direct care a patient can expect to receive from and RN in a 24-hour period.
Nurse : Patient Ratio - Number of patients cared for by one nurse; calculated as 24 / RN Hours Per Patient Day.

Patient Falls with Injury
What this means:
All documented patient falls with an injury level of moderate or greater.
Moderate - resulted in suturing, application of steri-strips/skin glue, or splinting.
Falls with injury rate = # of falls w/ injury of moderate or greater severity / Patient Days * 1000
