In response to criticism that calculating the three-shift nurse-to-patient ratio as a monthly average is a 'numbers game,' Taiwan's Ministry of Health and Welfare (MOHW) announced a trial. It will start at ministry-affiliated hospitals in Taipei and Taoyuan, exploring tech-based methods like medical ID cards or check-in systems for dynamic, per-shift monitoring of actual staffing levels.
