Current Psych hospital staffing

I have looked at many of the postings and was interested to learn what the current staffing is for behavioral health or psych inpatient setting. I have seen a couple of years back that the staffing ratio to patient was changing. Did a travel assignment in WY in 2005 and you had from 6-7 patients, and think it was 3 MHTs. Then I worked for a hospital in MO and on nights you may have over 25 patients with 2 RNs, 2 MHTs this was late 2006. Now I am seeing on the evening shift at a state hospital in KY where there may be 2 RNs, an LPN and 4-5 MHTs. The state hospital has a combination of schioaffective, active delusional, ones sent from the jail who are causing a problem and those with major behavioral problems that mean they are out of control and violent.

I am simply curious to know how it is in other parts of the country. Already read how PSI is buying out hospitals in Texas and the staffing has been cutback. I already know that I will be leaving this area very soon, getting too old for this now and life is too short. So please tell me how it is for your pack of the country. Be great to hear if there was a place where patient care and staffing actual happened.

Thanks
