Title
Private dialysis centers, nurse-patient ratio established, Dept. of Public Health to adopt rule
Description

Currently, there is no state law or administrative rule setting a maximum patient-nurse ratio for care of patients at private dialysis centers licensed by the Department of Public Health.

This bill would require the Department of Public Health, by rule, to establish a patient-nurse ratio at private dialysis centers to protect patient health, safety, and welfare and would set a maximum ratio of no greater than eight patients per nurse.
