†

Regressions control for baseline staffing, work environment, teaching status, bed size, and technology status. Coefficients for work environment/staffing represent the average change in outcome rate associated with a hospital that improved as compared to a hospital that did not change (or a hospital that did not change as compared to one that declined).
