Higher Proportions of Baccalaureate-Prepared Nurses in Veterans Affairs Medical Centers Associated With Lower Surgical Mortality
BACKGROUND: Multiple studies have linked higher levels of BSN-prepared nurses to lower odds of postsurgical mortality and failure-to-rescue (FTR; ie, death following the development of a postsurgical complication).
