Staffing Plans

There are many variables to consider in establishing safe, efficiently staffed hospital units. Patient care units differ based upon the types of patients cared for, and the way in which care is organized and delivered there. Education and experience levels of unit staff and support from nurse educators and nurse managers also factor into unit staffing decisions, as does the unique characteristics and mission of each hospital.

Your Story is our Story - Glens Falls Hospital “All of the nurses and staff in the Snuggery were exceptional. The OR nurses were amazing and made me feel comfortable and calm.
