Health Minister Rachel Stephen-Smith said there have been struggles in meeting nurse-to-patient ratios on every single shift across Canberra's public hospitals due to staffing shortages but all wards had hired the nurses to meet the ratios.
The ACT's opposition questioned the government's rollout of the nurse-to-patient ratios in the Legislative Assembly on Wednesday, with shadow health spokeswoman Leanne Castley calling on the government to prove compliance with the ratios.
