Florida ER nurse to patient ratio

Published

Specializes in Emergency/Urgent Care FNP.

Experienced ER nurse here, thinking about taking a travel assignment to Florida. Anyone have experience working in Florida ER? Looking to find out what the patient to nurse ratio is. Have worked in Texas, Washington and AZ all of which have a 4 patient to 1 RN ratio. Want to travel to Florida, but not if the patient to RN ratio is unsafe..

Thank you in advance for information pertaining to RN to ER patient ratio.

Hi, you should join the group travel nurse newbies on facebook, ton of info on stuff like this. I also was looking into Florida for travel and it looks like it can be one of the worst states for pt ratios unfortunately. Nurses were saying 6-9 patients a piece right now. Hope this helps!
