Philadelphia-area nurses represented by the Pennsylvania Association of Staff Nurses and Allied Professionals (PASNAP) are planning go hold a series of "public actions" to call attention to what they say are critical staffing concerns at local medical centers.
Additionally, nurses across Pennsylvania plan to gather in Harrisburg on Sept. 28 to urge legislators to pass the Patient Safety Act, which would mandate nurse-to-patient ratios, based on patient acuity, in all state hospitals.
