    AbstractIn the following article, selected results of a descriptive study on personnel staffing and patients' care in intensive care units in Germany are presented and discussed. The main focus is laid on comparing features of personnel staffing with indicators of job satisfaction and patients' care. The study is based on an online questionnaire of critical care nurses run in 2017. The article represents the data of 2233 included German critical care nurses.
