Hawaii SB2763 establishes minimum nurse-to-patient staffing ratios and staffing plans for hospitals.
Hawaii SB2763 mandates that hospitals establish hospital registered nurse staffing committees to develop and implement staffing plans based on patient needs and recommended minimum nurse-to-patient ratios. The bill requires hospitals to post their staffing plans and makes them available to patients upon request. It also sets up a variance process for hospitals to temporarily deviate from their staffing plans under certain conditions. The Department of Labor and Industrial Relations is tasked with reviewing staffing plans, investigating complaints, and imposing fines for non-compliance.
