NICE Safe Staffing Guidelines NICE is developing evidence based guidelines setting out safe staffing for the NHS. This will include reviewing and endorsing staffing tools The focus of work will be on nursing and midwifery, including nursing support. The guidelines will help ensure an appropriate balance of staff numbers and skill mix on wards and in other settings As this new guidance programme develops other elements of the healthcare team may be included www.nice.org.uk/About/What-we-do/Our-Programmes/NICE-guidance/NICE- guidelines/NICE-safe-staffing-guidelines
Safe Staffing Guidelines Covers staffing for nursing in adult inpatient wards in acute hospitals Identifies organisational and managerial factors - from trust to ward level Sets indicators to be used to demonstrate information on whether safe nursing care is being provided Identifies red flag events which warn when nurses in charge of shifts must act immediately to ensure they have enough staff to meet the needs of patients on that ward No recommended nurse/patient ratio - providing patient centred care more complex.
Feedback Strong feedback generally following Sussex workforce event earlier in September in highlighting issues in the system and opening the conversation to a system-wide workforce planning event. Points to consider though are: It is important that provider organisations work together in sharing workforce plans with CCGs to adopt a system approach to planning There are various areas that needed further investigation such as District Nursing, Podiatry and Mental health Nursing Trust leads coming back to KSS on this. Trusts need to ensure they are sharing their plans at all levels internally and sense checking forecasts against commissions themselves. The Primary Care workforce tool was well received and needs to be progressed as quickly as possible
