As health care workers and patient advocates we need to support this legislation and make it important. This is a true marker of quality of care that is being overlooked.

To improve patient safety and satisfaction by reducing nurse fatigue, decreasing nurse burnout and to improve overall nurse retention and job satisfaction. I want nurses to stay in their job
