Staffing Problems and Policy Makers
Share with others
My wife works at a hospital. She is appalled at times due to staffing situations created by administrators who don’t understand the nurses role. There have been policies made that cripple the time a nurse has, and needs to give out care. At times there is no secretary on the floor, and at one point only one nurse running the phones and whole floor only to get 6 admissions that night!
Imagine…all this to save money. Supposedly the economy has hit our hospitals hard . This is such a shame because we are now putting people at risk to save a buck…even if you have insurance!
Overwhelmed nurses with little to no assistance cannot run their floors efficiently and safely. I agree with the author of the previously posted blog, where is all the money going?
We need something to be done, but we also need health insurance now, health insurance agents are the only ones crazy enough to be able to work through this system so give one a call.
