Is it difficult to imagine that U.S. nurses can be paid better than nurses in other countries but at the same time not paid well enough and exploited beyond their breaking point? A bit of context: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/19/opinion/nurses-staffing-hospitals-covid-19.html https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/19/opinion/nurses-staffing-h... Here's a response by an anonymous staff member at LA's Children's Hospital: ( https://old.reddit.com/r/LosAngeles/comments/s7wfqo/we_know_the_real_cause_of_the_crisis_in_our/htcjyc7/ https://old.reddit.com/r/LosAngeles/comments/s7wfqo/we_know_... ) Summary: Hospitals cut costs by staffing the bare minimum. Patients aren’t receiving the care the should be. Nurses are experiencing moral distress and leaving en masse. I work at CHLA. We are losing experienced nurses due to the lowest wages in the LA area for the level of care we give. Shameful for a hospital that is Best Children’s Hospital in the west. The pay discrepancy between the executives and staff is criminal We need more publicity about this. Help the nurses out and let’s get more eyes on this issue, particularly CHLA. Celebrities love that place and use it for PR often. Let’s give the nurses some badly needed PR. They are non-union and notoriously underpaid. Best care for kids maybe but also best kept secret in worker’s dissatisfaction
