Subdivision 1. Definition. For purposes of this section and
section 144.592, "direct-care registered nurse" means a registered
nurse, as defined in section 148.171, subdivision 20, who is nonsupervisory and
nonmanagerial and who directly provides nursing care to patients more than 60
percent of the time.
Subd. 2. Requirements;
factors. A hospital must
assign nursing personnel to each patient care unit consistent with the
hospital's staffing plan. For each
patient care unit, a direct-care registered nurse shall evaluate the following
factors to assess and determine the adequacy of staffing levels to meet patient
care needs:
(1)
composition of skill mix and roles available;
(2) patient acuity;
(3) experience level of registered
nurse staff;
(4) unit activity level, such as
admissions, discharges, and transfers;
(5) variable staffing grids;
(6) availability of a registered nurse
to accept an assignment; and
(7) nursing intensity.
Subd. 3. Prohibited
acts. A hospital shall not:
(1) assign a direct-care registered
nurse to a hospital unit unless the direct-care registered nurse is able to
demonstrate current competence in providing care in that unit and has received
orientation to that hospital's unit sufficient to provide competent care to the
patients in that unit;
(2) assign nursing personnel from a
supplemental nursing services agency to provide patient care on a hospital unit
until the agency nurse is able to demonstrate validated competence in providing
care in the assigned unit, and has received orientation to that hospital's unit
sufficient to provide competent care to patients in that unit; or
(3) assign unlicensed personnel to:
(i) perform direct-care registered
nurse functions in lieu of care delivered by a direct-care registered nurse;
(ii) perform tasks that require the
assessment, judgment, or skill of a direct-care registered nurse; or
(iii) perform functions of a
direct-care registered nurse under the supervision of a direct-care registered
nurse.
Subd. 4. Inadequate
staffing. (a) If any
direct-care registered nurse determines that staffing levels are inadequate and
so notifies the unit's charge nurse and a manager or administrative supervisor,
the manager or administrative supervisor shall consider the following:
(1) current patient care assignments
for potential redistribution;
(2) the ability to facilitate
discharges, transfers, and admissions;
(3) the availability of additional
staffing resources; and
(4) the hospital-wide census and
staffing.
(b) If the staffing inadequacies cannot
be resolved and resources cannot be reallocated by the manager or
administrative supervisor after considering the factors in paragraph (a), the
hospital shall call in extra staff to ensure adequate staffing to meet safe
patient standards.
(c) Until extra staff arrive and begin
to receive patient assignments:
(1)
the hospital must suspend nonemergency admissions and elective surgeries that
routinely lead to in-patient hospitalization;
(2) the charge nurse for the unit with
inadequate staffing levels is authorized to close the unit to new patient
admissions and in-hospital transfers; and
(3) a direct-care registered nurse is
authorized to refuse an assignment that is unsafe, in the nurse's professional
judgment.
Sec. 10. [144.592]
RETALIATION PROHIBITED.
A
hospital shall not retaliate against or discipline a direct-care registered
nurse, either formally or informally, for:
(1) refusing to accept an assignment
if, in good faith and in the nurse's professional judgment, the nurse
determined that the assignment is unsafe for patients due to patient acuity and
nursing intensity; or
(2) reporting a concern regarding safe staffing levels."

PROTEST
AND DISSENT
Pursuant to Article IV, Section 11 of the Minnesota
Constitution, we the undersigned Members of the Minnesota House of
Representatives register our protest and dissent against Minority Leader
Melissa Hortman for her divisive statements made on Monday, April 3, 2017
during debate on Senate File 803.
Minority Leader Hortman's statements needlessly invoked the
race and gender of her colleagues, and called into question the motives of
members during a lengthy floor debate.
Her statements stand in direct violation of Mason's Chapter
13, Section 124 which limits debate to the question before the House and
prohibits invocation of personalities, and Mason's Chapter 12, Section 114
which prohibits members from questioning the motives of colleagues. Her statements were deeply divisive and
beneath the dignity of the Minnesota House of Representatives.
We the undersigned Members of the House of Representatives
admonish Minority Leader Hortman for her statements. We implore Minority Leader Hortman to
apologize for her actions and strive to repair the damage she has caused to the
collaborative work environment at the Minnesota House of Representatives.
Further, pursuant to Article IV, Section 11 of the Minnesota
Constitution, we direct that our protest and dissent be entered into the
Journal of the House of Representatives.
