This one is more of a shortage because all support staff got fired and duties lumped on nurses without increasing staff levels. Add back 4 medical/nursing assistants per floor and there’s not a shortage anymore, because nurses aren’t making beds, doing vitals checks, and grabbing water anymore.
Our processes are bad, much better to harm the occasional patient. Thank god you’re not my nurse
Ok where are they? There aren’t any hence the shortage…
There’s not a nurse shortage.
There’s a nurse shortage at the current wages and working conditions.
And the fix shouldn’t be to put patients at risk.
I agree there
