Nursing and midwifery staffing levels

From June 2014 all hospitals are required to publish monthly information about the number of nursing and midwifery staff working on each ward, together with the percentage of shifts meeting safe staffing guidelines.

This initiative is part of the NHS response to the Francis Report (pdf) 893K [FRANCIS] Report (pdf) which called for greater openness and transparency in the health service.

Recent staffing levels can be found in our board meeting documents.
