Some studies merely confirm what any rational person would have thought in the first place.

Link Between Nurse Numbers And Patient Mortality

Patients staying in hospitals where there are fewer nurses on the wards are more likely to die or experience complications, according to a major new study launched at the Royal College of Nursing (RCN). The independent study - the first of its kind in the UK - mirrors the findings of US research by establishing a direct link between the number of nurses working on wards and patients' chances of recovery and survival. The research also finds that nurses working on wards where nurse to patient ratio are lower are much more likely to experience "burn out."
