  • INQRI Grantee Linda Flynn Quoted in Star-Ledger

    Registered nurses in New Jersey are on the brink of exhaustion from "unreasonable" workloads that sometimes cause them to miss important changes in their patients' conditions, according to a survey released Monday.

    More than half of the 22,000 registered nurses responding to the survey said they didn't believe there is enough nursing staff in their institutions to provide quality patient care, while one-third said unreasonable workloads had caused them to look for a new job.

    "It's not the nursing they don't like, it's the challenges they face in order to do their job," said Linda Flynn of Rutgers College of Nursing in Newark, who led the study that she described as the most comprehensive to date.
