One big point the liability of your license and if you mess up ala Vanderbilt nurse… I still think she should have lost her license……. But criminal charges……… also begging the question if the hospital weren’t such AH about staffing would she have even Been in this situation.

I tell to outsiders of nursing….. if you work say construction and it’s pre COVID… does one trade do the jobs of three other trades with one or two people on a Job site…. No because it’s unsafe inefficient and not cost effective… and nothing gets done…. Then call backs happen (hey Bob the plumber/CNA your pipes are leaking).. hey roofer/guy who can’t focus on the roof he built which now less because the phone keeps ringing with patient families since god for bid they hire a 24/7 nurse case manager act as a liaison so the staff nurse can do their job.

And finally let’s get rid of the old school foreman on the IV team… who fix things and get things done… oh well… let’s hire a bunch of muppet 20 year old new grads who will just give up and play on their phones all shift
