Association between hospital staffing models and failure to rescue.
The purpose of this study was to identify hospital staffing models associated with failure to rescue (FTR) rates at low- and high-performing hospitals. The investigators concluded that low FTR hospitals had significantly more staffing resources than high FTR hospitals. They indicated that although hiring additional staff may be beneficial, there remain significant financial limitations for many hospitals to implement robust staffing models.
