A union representing Bay State nurses says it will withdraw two proposed November ballot questions if a deal reached on nurse-patient ratios that the Legislature put on the fast track is signed into law.
The Senate yesterday joined the House in approving the agreement that would set a one nurse, one patient ratio in Bay State hospital intensive care units, with certain exceptions. It now goes to Gov. Deval Patrick's desk.
"This is a landmark victory for patient safety," Massachusetts Nurses Association President Donna Kelly-Williams said in a statement.
"This measure will protect the most critically ill patients in our hospitals and moves us closer to our ultimate goal, which is to extend these limits in all hospital units to protect all patients."
Once the bill becomes law, the union will withdraw two proposed ballot initiatives: one that would require nurse-patient ratios and another that would force hospitals to be more transparent about their financial holdings, Kelly-Williams said.
