The Staff Mix Decision-making Framework for Quality Nursing Care is a comprehensive and evidence-informed resource presenting a systematic approach to staff mix decision-making that can be used in all clinical practice settings. Decisions concerning staff mix must reflect nurses’ scope of practice and unregulated care providers’ (UCP) scope of employment and must conform to legislation, professional standards and organizational policies. Administrators and researchers are encouraged to use outcome measurement data in a rigorous manner to inform decision-making regarding safe and effective staffing practices.
