Hello, I am in desperate need of advice. I am a new RN, I work on a surgical Floor in where my ratio is 4-5 pt per nurse. The problem I am having is rather than closing our floor which usually runs with 2-3 RN'S. The powers from above pull one nurse and leave only one RN on the floor with a student nurse aide. Is this even legal? I know that each state is different but any opinions would be greatly appreciated
