Yeah this is actually a huge issue that drives me crazy. Patients do not get nearly as good care as they could have if hospitals just staffed appropriately, people literally die because of this and it still happens because the hospital gas-lights everyone by making up bullshit excuse. At least in the U.S. Anytime you ask why things are they way they are and wonder how it can be better, follow the money. It’s always greedy assholes fucking up the world.

And it’s this comment right here that makes me say this. “No doctor has the time to come and tuck you in and bring you a glass of ice chips” well guess what? Nurses don’t either. CNAs are the ones who do that. Recently I had a doctor tell me he didn’t think nurses should be striking for better wages because “all they do is wipe asses and push gurney’s” these doctors give being a doctor a bad name. Don’t look down on the people actually carrying out the healthcare, because without them you have nothing.

For one of the local colleges it costs about 100K

Ah yes, thanks for the correction. Additionally, RN to BSN programs are 1-2 years depending on the program.

Shortage’s are very common, but from what I’m aware it’s not due to lack of nurses, it’s due to the hospitals not staffing appropriately to save money for their CEOs.

Awesome! Just as I was going to start nursing school next year. This could not be better news!! 😭

LVN takes about two years, RN 4, and BSN another year after RN.

Nurses are the ones delivering the majority of your care, while doctors either diagnose you or are surgeons of some sort.

To sum this up, it’s another attack on healthcare. Do you want uneducated nurses taking care of you every needs? Because nurses are all you’ve got, doctors don’t lift a fucking finger doing bedside work.

As someone from the U.S. I support this. But also, learn from China and work with them in the obvious productive ways, but don’t like… trust them.

I’ve heard conservatives say it wasn’t covid, it was the vaccine for covid that gave blood clots.

And in this context, you mean Americans need to not visit their families for the holidays? Because by boycotting the holidays with their families it disrupts the system of oppression?

What are you even saying here? In this context?

“I’m szwowyz, pwetty pwease overlook my choices and beliefs thus far and elect me again”
