2007 LMI National Survey of Hours Report© Now Available!

The Labor Management Institute has published its 2007 National Survey of Hours Report.

The 2007 National Survey of Hours Report© publication date was July 12, 2007 and is now available to order from our website or by phone. This report is now in its 18th year.

Total respondents in the 2007 Annual Survey of Hours is 175 of which 173 were accepted. The total patient care units analyzed in 2007 were 2,629 of which 2,468 were accepted. As a new feature this year, the 2007 report includes unit comparisons for the cardiac, medical, neurology, oncology, infant/pediatrics units in addition to the critical care and labor/delivery units.

We had an excellent response from the respondent hospitals providing us either their RN to patient ratios or their RN percentages so that we could calculate the ratios for 60 unit types. The full report of RN to patient ratios is the most extensive comparison of RN to patient ratios available today.

There is no charge to participate in the Survey and each respondent receives a full copy of the report valued at $125.
