Wouldn’t you? That job seems to be low pay with tons of hours. If you want to fix that, raise salaries and reduce hours so nurses can feel like human beings.
Yeah the hours the medical field demands seems ridiculous. I have a friend working 18 hour shifts as a transport driver. Why is that considered a good idea?
Correct. Medical field is in high demand, and there are often special doors to go through to expedite the immigration process and fast track citizenship.
No, that’s because of the crushing weight of the charting and these places being chronically understaffed due to corporate greed. I worked as a CNA in a hospital, and we were doing our best to help everyone every second of our shift. It probably seemed like we were just disappearing because we never knew when we went into a room if we’d encounter a few seconds of questions, or if it would be an hour of assistance due to an emergency.
But I’ve also worked overnight at a nursing home, and there was definitely some downtime there, including for nurses.
is this why nurses are always just disappearing and leaving patients to suffer?

Pretty sure that’s illegal, at least in the US
There seem to be a lot of exceptions for medic-related jobs.

No the understaffed hospitals are why nurses are being overworked and not able to manage the high patient load.
You’re aiming your rage at the wrong target.
No, it’s because patients throw their medication in the bin ;)
