Scenario

You are making a staffing assignment knowing that you are short staffed. You have five registered nurses (RNs), two licensed practical nurses (LPNs), and two nursing assistants. Those nine employees need to provide a 12-hour shift of services to 30 number of clients with a high acuity required to a ratio of nurse to client at 1:3.

Client acuity level

  • Six acuity level 1
  • Eight acuity level 2
  • Nine acuity level 3
  • Seven acuity level 4

You will use the acuity-based staffing model to develop the staffing assignment based on the needs of the clients and a template has been created to use (see resources below).

Instructions

As you create this assignment, include the following in an email to your manager to justify your short staffing plan:

  • Complete the staffing assignment based on the acuity level.
  • Defend how you would direct the staff to their assigned roles for this shift and provide a rationale for the staffing assignment.
