As many of you know, I'm a nurse. Right wing as many of you consider my beliefs but I need some help to change the laws in the state. In Alabama there is no law for the minimum or maximum of number for nurses to take care of a patient.
Here there is no law to give the facilites for a patient/nurse ratio. The last job I had I was assigned 60 patients with myself as nurse as three aides. There is no way to take care of someone when you have 59 others to worry about. This was a three story facility with one nurse on each floor. If someone coded, then all nurses in the building were expected to respond. Which left all the patients on the two floors without a nurse. This is Alabama. There is no protection for the aging population.
With the election coming up, I'm pushing for a state senator to change the law to protect the patients, nurses and aides. I would greatly appreciate any help. There should be a minumum amount of nurses to patients. 30 at the max, not 60. With a receding state law over the years to lower the amount to 25 per nurse and 15 per aide.
With the current amount each patient will see increased bed sores, less care and increased critical problems.
I'm sorry, but this is a passion I want changed in the state. I'm going to need help.
