Smile Patient accuity levels for chemo patients.

Hello one and all

I work in a chemotherapy unit and would like to know where I can get information on specific accuity levels for chemo patients. The present system I'm working with seriously needs updating.

Thank you,

Cathy

Inpatient unit or Outpatient unit? The ONS website in May 2006(?) gave staffing aquity level of 3.8 patients per nurse in the outpatient setting based on a study and aquity tool developed by Sloane Kettering Memorial Hospital. I have attempted to find the information and article to no avail. Good luck!
