HealthcareStaffing & Scheduling4HighNurse$ implied

Nurses on a med surg floor are overwhelmed by high patient ratios (1:6 or 1:8) and heavy workload, lacking a dedicated charge nurse to manage support staff interruptions.

Existing staffing and scheduling systems do not enforce safe nurse-to-patient ratios or provide a dedicated charge nurse to filter non-nursing tasks, leaving bedside nurses to handle all interruptions.
