Nurse to Patient Ratios in NYS SNF

[CSEA RN]

Rather than search all over the internet, I thought I'd post my question here and reach those of you in the trenches. Is there a NTP ratio in NY State SNF's? Please include LPN to Pt. ratio in your response. Thanks!!

:monkeydance: I work in Calif. and have been trying to find out the same thing. JCAHO guidelines are just a lot of words. Currently I have 32 patients to do meds/tx's on. This is in a subacute setting in a snf. If you find out, please post.
