Nurse and midwife-to-patient ratios

Our Ratios Framework – what it means for you

Across our public health system, we understand that one size doesn’t fit all when it comes to patient care and staff numbers. 

That’s why we have developed and implemented the Safe Care Staffing Framework to address the unique care and staffing needs for each clinical area.

The Framework supports the implementation of Ratios across the health services and has been planned and implemented in partnership with nursing and midwifery staff working in the public health system.

See our Nurse/Midwife-to-Patient Ratios page for more information.
