Because it helps define appropriate short-term actions, it is more likely that the same line manager, making the staffing decision will still be in place to collect the benefits of that decision later on. First of all, it is important to address staffing from a proactive, planning perspective and not just an implantation phase. Even though this approach may have been used before, it is no longer realistic for organizations to assume that the staff needed to implement its plans is readily available and quickly recruited, trained, and qualified to work. Some staffing limitations may impact the company’s ability to implement its plans. For instance, my organization requires that only registered nurses with advance life support certification are to be scheduled to work on sub-acute unit.
