This is happening because we have GREEDY HOSPITAL CEOs and those just under them, who CLAIM that they cannot afford to adequately staff hospitals, AT MY LAST HOSPITAL THE CEO WAS MAKING 4 MILLION A YEAR!! . THIS WAS HAPPENING LONG BEFORE COVID, COVID just pushed enough nurses and staff over the edge for them to just quit, and not come back. WELCOME TO NURSES' life, nurses weren't getting breaks LONG BEFORE COVID because hospitals expect them to take on more and more patients, patients who are becoming increasingly abusive and entitled, along with their families. KEN DOESN'T GET IT, THIS IS EVERY HOSPITAL, NOT JUST THIS ONE!!! Try being a nurse caring to TEN plus patients, it's ridiculous!!
Also the profession is not desirable anymore with younger gen. So low staffing would be an outcome, if people are leaving and recruiting numbers are low there lies your issue.
@@meeksluv No, it's a domino effect, MANY nurses left the bedside, and a huge majority leave within their first year BECAUSE OF SHORT STAFFING, which is caused by hospitals who made their top concern making money and not patient safety in the early 2000s and beyond! COVID just exasperated the situation, and nurses who were considering leaving made the leap into other careers because they were tired of being treated like a slave for 12 Horus a day, and on top of it being expected to care for very sick patients for 12 hours without even a pee break!!
I work in Radiology as a traveler and what I have seen recently has been beyond scary. This is happening at so many hospitals. Not enough staff to do certain diagnostic exams and care for patients the way you want to. I’m gaining new skills and planning my exit route.
it's always understaffed. they can't close the ED. this just shows how little the normal population know about the job of healthcare and healthcare providers.
RIGHT, he doesn't get that this isn't a hospital here and there, this is HAPPENING AT EVERY HOSPITAL, and I blame the increased greedy CEOs and those just under them!!
@@blessed_one_agreed that is why I'm staying as fit at possible so i don't need the services. Hopefully by the time I do they have something better. It also didn't help that Obama care put a ton more people into the system with no capacity increase.
I was in military healthcare for 20 years. After the military I went into civilian healthcare and my starting pay was $15/hour. I couldn’t afford to stay. I applied and interviewed for 4 different promotion and nothing. I left to work at a local college and doubled my income.
The hospital I work for is understaffed and it’s like they’re not even trying to be competitive or keep or recruit people…. The competition is throwing money and getting all our experienced people…. It’s nuts… Ready to walk myself….
Because nobody is interested in the profession anymore, it's not desirable to younger gen. So if recruiting is low from schooling stand point, and older health care providers are leaving the profession how can the institution keep staffing numbers up?
COVID killed the elective dollars and upped the indigent care. End indigent care and require everyone to pay their own way; hospitals make more and need fewer employees. Why does no one talk about the persons who repetitively visit the ER without paying and their impact on the system and paying customers?
This is everywhere and most primary care and in-hospital doctors are not making anywhere near $500k, or even $200k. There’s a lot admins/CEOs can do to make changes that don’t involve staffing alone but with staffing issues a lot of facilities have started hiring LOCUMS. If I was her I would go very part time or leave this role entirely. Has she said how long she’s been in this role? How is the debt not paid off already? She makes an extreme amount of money and this could be paid off this month.
As a medical professional who left the field! It was because they forced the jab. MANY healthcare professionals refused and others who took it resented the ones who didnt and now they are very short staffed. Its a mess but when they pushed the jab it became too divided. But.... i think all of that was done intentionally to create socialized healthcare
Forcing the vaccine was wrong, and the president needs to take full responsibility for causing the problem. He should pay, whether with money or prison time, for causing the decay of our healthcare facilities.
This is similar to the situation that I am in, only. I am in a different industry. I'm overworked and completely stressed out, but I know that if I want the way, those who depend on me would be in trouble. However, it doesn't mean no good to work to the point where I flame out, either.
+1 The HCA hospital system here in town is printing cash. They're always announcing how they're buying this hospital, these urgent care clinics, that HH/hospice agency, etc. But when it comes to staff, they just can't seem to come up with the money to pay people.
@@davidg.9561 Yeah I'm in gainesville, HCA is dogsh*t. Corporate expansion with unnecessary greed at its finest. UF Shands is slightly better given it is more academic focused and backed by the university. Not great, but much better. HCA pays more per person, but will not hire and cannot retain. Cheaper to increase a nurses pay by 20K and doubling their workload instead of hiring a new nurse for 60K outright. Same with docs. Avg ER doc makes around 300K, her hospital gave her a 200K pay raise instead of hiring a new ER doc outright. Saved 100K at the cost of quality medical care. And we know the extra money went to the top dogs in the administration or to expansion. Sounds like HCA orlando tbh.
It's a vicious cycle in a lot of fields. Overworked employees burn out and quit, leading to the rest getting burned out and quitting. It seems like leaders need to be willing to accept boundaries, which is better than no help at all. 8 hours from a fresh employee is better than zero hours from an employee who got burned out from 12 hours a day 7 days a week.
Overworked, understaffed and severely under compensated. They will take young unexperienced workers who will accept less compensation. Hospital turnover has become like call centers. Burn them out and get new ones in. Good luck to the aging generation with healthcare needs.
Bingo!! They know there will always some new grad that is drowning in debt, willing to work long hours at half the pay.. until u reach a financial flexibility you will always be under the mercy of somebody
I've been a nurse for a couple decades, it's always been this way. Healthcare (at least in the hospital setting) is a young person's game. COVID just exacerbated the issue. Large, for profit hospitals are more interested in training and burning through new grads than actually being competitive and retaining experienced staff.

This is why you save and invest and have funds to walk.
It's sad because if hospital staff keep walking, being a patient becomes very unsafe.
As a poor person...still sure is hard to Walk away from a $500,000 salary or even $100 per hour less job....
@@jimv77Then they shouldn't. Work until you can afford to leave.

I know someone who knows someone that maked almost $500,000 or more but retired becuase to be honest it was detrimental and exhausting

Anyone else notice the amount of hospitals adding new wings during C0V1D?
No point in socialized health care if you can't hire people

They like to work us short staffed so they have money to stuff their pockets at the end of the year.
I thought Obama Care was going to fix everything! 😂😂
DO NOT GET SICK.
Because of the elephant in the room!
God I wish I had her problem…
Rightttt! 250 an HOUR my GOD!
Invest,invest and invest. This amount of salary can retire you in 3 years literally. Its a tough job tho..
Who cares who will replace her they always will.find someone else. Go find another Hospital that works better for you
No wonder nurses dropping their jobs for OnlyFans 😂
wait until guys start running out of money. Then it's every booty for itself
rescind taking the jab.
