Yes. As a retired nurse with 30yrs experience, I've been saying that these problems are not new. It had just been exposed by the Covid crisis. I agree you can't run a healthcare facility like a business. If you cut back on staff,you lose patients. This is all facilities,not just hospitals. We need to start treating staff and patients like human beings.

As a nurse. I no longer work at a hospital. The pay is poor. The hospitals are understaffed for the purpose of keeping cost down. It is all about money. Cutting cost on a job that you can't cut personal from. I have had 90 patients on an 8 hour shift and I have had offers of jobs with 150 patients. What I told my potential employees was this. You don't need a nurse you need a super hero. Let's do the math 90 patients in 8 hours. Maybe 5 minutes to do treatment give medicine and chart. That is stupid and dangerous. Let's do the math on 150. 3 minutes to do complex time consuming tasks that can lead to life or death. Don't live in America until the Healthcare is fixed. End of story. This career is garbage. It is basically what teachers felt. Total exploitation.

I started working in medical devices towards the middle/end of the corporate takeover of hospitals (around 2014) and watched everything completely change in a matter of 2-3 years. Nurses went from being overworked, to being overworked and underpaid. The physicians are no long in charge of anything and ALL policies are determined by a hospital board, that are usually comprised of people with ZERO healthcare experience, and ONLY care about profits. They're effectively FORCING healthcare workers to make unethical decisions -even if they're unaware of it being made.

Healthcare is a human right not an opportunity for the wealthy to profit. We pay a multitude of taxes for services and infrastructure as part of a civilized society. This should include health, education, services and basic human rights or the contract between a government and its people is null and void. In the UK our NHS is slowly being drowned by for-profit organisations taking a larger piece of the budget. Most Europeans are horrified by the amount of profiteering in the American system...

It's not just nurses in the Healthcare industry with a lack of support and proper staffing. Diagnostic Radiographers and respiratory therapists are also having the same problems. My current hospital just cut costs for agency techs and several are leaving after their contracts end over the next few months. Plus we're already short staffed at night and evenings in a trauma and stroke hospital. On busy days It's horrible.

Totally. I do molecular testing at a specialist pathology lab now and me and the other molecular tech have traded many a horror story of the previous reference labs we worked during 2020 and 2021. It was a nightmare and that's why we both got out once the test volume went back to normal crazy levels. She was at a bigger lab so the volume was more insane and it was running 24 hours: she did the night shift. I was at an independent lab that also did sample collection so I had smaller test volume but I running around doing all of the sample collection. I was literally the only person that was cleared to run all of the tests and collect all of the different sample types.

The one place that I experienced that does it well is South Korea. I was always amazed by the sheer volume of technicians, doctors, and nurses available to help and assist me. How quickly I found my needs met under a national healthcare plan. South Korea had one of the lowest mortality rates associated with covid. I know this might be anecdotal and this is a complicated issue with more than one solution. I agree with the basic premise of the video: move away from a pure business model. Invest more resources and support for the medical community and good things will happen!

Molecular lab scientist here. It's the same for us in the lab. We were already understaffed and operating with the minimum amount of necessary equipment and supplies. I spent all of 2020 and 2021 doing hundreds of PCR tests for 14-16 hours a day because that's what we had to do to handle the test volume. Which was never fast enough. And the amount of testing that was denied because of insurance and out-of-pocket costs was even more depressing. So even though we were overworked and burnt out, we also were frustrated and angry that we couldn't do more. That the volume should have been even higher and the labs should be staffed and supplied and lab workers should be adequately paid.

Yep, also as an MD, I don’t know how to actually run any of the tests. All I know is if you want appropriate care we need the results, and that means everything being handled and processed properly. So many different people in the system are overworked, underpaid, and asked to sacrifice without limit. Meanwhile, business degree at same level of education, you’re in a comfy office on 6 figures and allowed to ask for more.

I do molecular testing. All of those PCR tests? That was us. It was a nightmare. The same thing kept us all going: the tests need to be done and if we stop there's no one else. Seriously, ask a doctor how to do a qRT-PCR. They have no clue. Lab testing requires a very specific set of skills along with training and education. Not a lot of people lining up for the job. And it's not being incentivized with great pay or anything.

After the Delta variant went rampant in the summer of 2021, I developed PTSD from what I saw as a healthcare worker. I still struggle with some of those symptoms today. Some rooms I simply cannot walk into without a flashback. Certain types of PPE (we used yellow gowns for COVID rooms), or the specific “COVID-carts” we used to store the PPE in will send me back to that time when I never had time for breaks or lunch. People died that quickly. If you take a lunch break and no one can stare at the O2 sats of these critical patients, someone will die. And even if you did your best, they’d still die. It was a nightmare.

If patients start making a demand for safe staffing I bet the hospitals would make a change. When you go to the hospital make sure you are asking about staffing. Putting it on your surveys. They will eventually make a change. These hospitals pinch Penny when it comes to staffing because they have to pay their CEO millions so he/she can buy a yacht or something.

In any society, there are certain rights to services, for which government - not private interests - should be responsible. Healthcare is certainly one of these. There should not be a profit motive attached to one's health. The US repeatedly comes in last, or near the bottom, of healthcare systems throughout the world. When the primary cause of personal bankruptcies is medical bills; there's a deep, systemic problem existing. Covid exposed this as nothing in recent history has - money was made in huge amounts by top management and shareholders, but over a million people died in the US. What effect did that have on healthcare workers? Or, families - or, just people? And, what does it say about our country?

I'm going through this at my hospital now. Our ceo made 2.079mil this year, not to mention all the other higher ups and their millions or hundreds of thousands. And yet, they supposedly have no money in the budget for higher pay, which is pushing all of us out. It took nurses going to the newspaper for my hospital to dispurse their covid funds 2 years ago to staff as a bonus that equated to 80 cents an hour, even less than that for those of us (most of us) who worked OT. The ICU manager was talking about making the ratios 4:1, the ED 5:1, our PCU is now 6:1 and medsurg, the cno talked about making it 7:1. We can't provide any care to patients with these unsafe staffing ratios. Pay the staff, retain the nurses. It's simple. But greed from the top, from those who have no healthcare experience but just a business management degree, from those who have no healthcare experience bur make all of the decisions, has forced us, the people who actually keep these hospitals running, to seek employment elsewhere.

They continue to lay off staff or cut back on travel nurses to help. It send you into a deep depression, anxiety and your apathy is drained. We've yelled, pleaded for help and the hospital simply has not changed their model or helped to improve. I will be leaving soon out of the hospital for a less stressful environment.

I agree with most of what she’s saying but there IS a nursing shortage. 4 million nurses for over 300 million people? What about rural areas with no nurses? What about all the nurses that are retiring? So there is a shortage that is further compounding all the other problems.

No problem for the healthcare industry, you know why? No matter how many of American nurses complains you are easily replaced by cheaper and less complaining immigrant nurses from the Philippines, India and etc... just like any businesses you are replaceable. Nurses from third world or developing countries I stated above would happily take over your jobs without 1 word of complain, they are so happy with the pay the US hospitals give them to the point whenever a job opening comes up they'll immediately grab that opportunity you left for them without any 2nd thoughts. American hospitals love Filipino nurses to the point they come to the Philippines to build partnerships with local manpower agencies.

A business model does not work for anything related to human rights like healthcare and education. Profiteering should always be seperated from policies tied to human rights as private healthcare companies are not in it to help people but to maximize profits.

Why not make the nurses and doctors 60%+ owners of the hospital they work at? They must vote among themselves and elect a rep to attend board meetings. That rep would be compensated by the group for their time. Since they own 60% of shares, they have the deciding vote on policies but they must have reasonable solutions. They also get a 60% portion of profits.

I've been a nurse for 8 years, yet every contract I work I have more experience than everyone. If you go to the hospital the nurse you get probably has less than a year of experience and was trained by the same. Nursing now is so much worse than when I started, It's always short staffed and patients/families are rude and demanding, and take out everything on the nurse. I'll never go staff again in the hospital. I hope I die before I end up in a hospital.

I am a little confused. Nurses got a huge bump in pay during covid. 1200 per extra shift. Then, vaccine mandates forced the hospitals to fire nurses. And, Medicare cuts payments so more responsibilities on staff. Get government out of all health care and the free market would figure it out.

Nurses need to strike & demand a pay of not less than $70/Hr! It’s ridiculous how much the people on top are pocketing while nurses are getting burned out & still can afford to raise their families!! Healthcare has become business-sadly at an expense of sick people.The greed going on is ridiculous. Look at this example: Kenneth Samet, President, CEO and Director of Medstar Health, earned the second-highest salary with $2,647,227 in total compensation…..

nursing homes also had the problems increase and covid really just showed everything the way it really is just unseen most of the time by joe public. a few here had to close their doors because they had no resources and help began to quit fearing they would be held accountable for not having the necessary items to care for the patients properly. eventually all patients were transferred to other facilities.

My Mom and most of the Residents in her nursing home as well as some of the staff died in the first three months of Covid. It didn't even have an official name or understanding of what it was then. Although having pre-paid Funeral arrangements to be laid out for days, a mass and burial she was buried alone while a few witnessed from cars. Due to a problematic family member I was notified by a friend/neighbor instead and without transportation couldn't even attend.

@@ufochannel01 Yours is one of the most beautiful gifts I've ever received on YT. I don't doubt most everything you said and as a child who almost died with my Mom in childbirth I know how much we were meant to be together. There were other times when experiencing near death experiences too when the veil was momentarily lifted and I experienced and witnessed things that could not begin to be explained with minds as limited as our time now allows. Thank you for the sincerity and best wishes much like I now have for you and all you hold dear. There truly is amazing grace, eternal joy and fulfillment in unconditional acceptance of all that is. Sincerity vibrates intent throughout all existence, now and forever. Until we meet again... 💜 Be well friend.

Why is it such a big issue to tax the rich in the USA? Create laws that will stop medicine manufacturers from asking ridiculous prices for their products. Simple medicine that in Canada you can get for a 10th of the price, such as insulin. Provide healthcare to your people. And hospitals should not be run like a money-printing factory. Quality is more important than quantity when you are caring for anyone's life. Im getting headaches when people say that the US is the greatest country on planet Earth.
