1. The analysis revealed hospitals in the “top quartile of perceived nursing workplace safety” possessed a 52 percent lower rate of “nurse-perceived missed care,” when compared to hospitals in the bottom quartile.
2. Those hospitals in the top quartile had a 27 percent higher nurse job enjoyment rate.
3. The top-ranked hospitals also held a 22 percent higher CMS Overall Hospital Quality star rating compared to the lowest-ranked hospitals.
4. Press Ganey found the top hospitals possessed a 3 percent higher rate of average “likelihood to recommend” scores.
5. The data also revealed work environment impacts nurse surveillance ability. The top-ranked hospitals in “perceived nursing capacity” had 26 percent fewer hospital-acquired pressure ulcers, compared to the bottom quartile of hospitals.
