These nurse staffing summary plots designed to make nurse staffing data useful to Trusts/Health Boards and Neonatal Networks. The horizontal axis show time in months for the year of interest. The vertical axis indicates the number of nurses. The solid black line represents the number of nurses that would be needed to care for the babies present in the unit, with some smoothing. The blue shading describes nurse staffing surplus to minimum requirement, and the orange shading shows where there is a staffing shortfall.
