This note from a frustrated MNA RN puts words to the frustration too many Nurses are feeling:
“We are getting tired of working without the safe amount of nurses. We have enough upper management to sink a ship and they want to add more COs. We need Bedside Nurses – the ones that do the work, the ones who take care of the patients, the ones who work overtime to help out the short staff. We need a state law telling the hospitals how many patients the nurse can safely take care of. How many RNs don’t even get a break on their whole entire shift? Do the CNOs ever miss a meal???? Sorry for the editorial, I’m just tired of all this crap.”
