No room at the hospital

Today's paper has an article about the number of hospitals that are going under financially because of Covid. This is especially true in the areas where people are still refusing the vaccine.

Nurses are leaving in droves because they are exhausted and depressed, and regular staff nurses are being replaced by "contract nurses," who get paid many times more than the regular ones. And the hospitals are turning away many patients who need to go in for "elective" surgery, which may mean needed or desirable surgery, but not life-saving. There are no beds for anything other than Covid. So the sources of income for many hospitals are drying up.

What a tragedy for this nation. And it's all so unnecessary, caused by human stupidity and stubbornness. There really is no other way to put it.

It's a sad situation for sure, my heart goes out to all the health care workers who have gone above and beyond their normal career duties to care for the public during this deadly worldwide pandemic. Thanks to their families who have sacrificed along with them.

This is the 'pandemic of the unvaccinated', so many selfish people refusing to get available vacccines and follow safety guidelines. They are a big reason we're in such bad shape in fighting this virus, and they only care about themselves. The only ones who should not get vaccinated are those who cannot by direction of their physician, some are allergic to vaccine ingredients and others have serious medical issues and are heavily medicated and are not able to receive the shot. Those folks still wear masks and try to keep themselves and others safe from infection.

This pandemic is creating a real mess at many of the hospitals. Doctors and nurses are having to work overtime just to manage the Covid cases, and there are very limited opportunities for those with other conditions to get the care they need. How long this can continue before it creates a major Nationwide health crisis remains to be seen.
 
Here we have Drs & nurses leaving the hospitals because they "KNOW' that the vaccine is not good for their bodies. This has been investigated so much here that when a person dies of a heart attack, stroke in old age it's counted as a Conav-19 death.

They have finally come out & said only 1% of the deaths in this state are from Conav-19. & 50% are the vaccinated ones. They didn't want this to get out because they like the scare tactics that the unvaccinated people are the cause of all the deaths. Well, they got caught red-handed & now have to change the way everything is reported to the CDC.

Do you realize you're spoiling it for the "Covid Crazy Blamers" above?"
 
"Nurses are leaving in droves because they are exhausted and depressed, and regular staff nurses are being replaced by "contract nurses," who get paid many times more than the regular ones"

They are also leaving due to being forced to choose between a job that they have done commendably daily all through this pandemic but that doesn't matter does it? Just getting vaccinated is all that matters. :rolleyes: So now more exhaustion and depression for the nurses who are left to work, and more nurses leaving and having to pay higher prices for that labor.

Forced mandate is back firing on its self.

The scare tactics are working - for programmed non thinkers, including the few here.

I had surgery two weeks ago. It was postponed for over a month because of Covid. There nurses and PCTs were literally working themselves to desk. I must say they still kept a smile on their face and gave me a high level of service, but you could tell that they were overwhelmed. My cousin is nurse, who has taken time out. It tells me that her could back today for $4,500 per week. But he doesn't feel that he can provide the necessary level of patient care under these conditions.

No, I was Talking to the Drs & nurses myself. They are the ones telling me all this. Amazing how much FASE info is out there. I go to the source to get my information. Course there are a lot on TV that are not Drs but politicians spreading fear-mongering.

This Pandemic is making drug manufactures extremely rich. Also making the government happy as they can CONTROL people like Nazis did back in WWII
Are you ready for the next phase? That's a death march/ride to Auschwitz.

Yes, & the pandemic is also bringing the "Holier Than Thou" fools out of the woodwork.
 
We lost 4 and possibly a 5th employee will not be coming back (she took a leave) due to the vaccine mandate in California for health care workers. Several at the last minute got the first vaccine and they are being allowed to stay. They have to do a rapid test daily for two weeks after their second dose. Not one person I know who got vaccinated has had any long term issues. Some may say it's too early to tell but at this point, nothing.

Cry me a river! The 1400 fired from this hospital system made their choice. Luckily, it's a job seekers market. Some of these now unemployed individuals may have some luck as school bus drivers or restaurants workers that have great demand nationwide.

"The largest healthcare provider in New York has fired 1,400 employees who refused to get COVID-19 vaccinations despite a statewide mandate."

With these refusers out on the pavement, the company has reached it goal to protect its patients.

Where are you getting this information Tom? Link to the source please so we all can read it.
 
Good riddance to those health care workers who refuse to be vaccinated. "Health care worker". Is it better to have less capacity to treat patients or have employees endanger the patients that need care?? Just read this afternoon that, nationally, medical facilities are losing slightly less than 1% of their employees due to the vaccine mandate. Have personally visited with three MD's in the past month. All are saying, "Get the vaccine! It's a matter of life and death!" Granddaughter has worked at a large nursing home facility for almost three years. They are losing close to two dozen employees. So, they are not filling vacancies in the short term. She says the administration has a number of rooms they need empty for the shorter staff to accommodate. Then, as more vaccinated nurses come on staff, more rooms can be opened.

Most states have a minimum number of vaccines required by health care workers. Hepatitis B, etc. Some states even require nursing staffs to have the flu vaccine. No one rebels against those mandates. The ONLY reason there is reluctance towards the COVID vaccine is the disinformation pushed by a certain political persuasion.

Well then I guess the below statement is false surely because they have reached their goal of nurses, and now there are no longer exhausted nurses, they have plenty of help. I'm sure that's happening everywhere, since its so successful.

"Nurses are leaving in droves because they are exhausted and depressed,"

"... droves..." can be a very subjective term if stated with no actual statistics. Yes, there are nurses leaving the field due to the long hours, verbal and physical threat from patient family members, pressures of working with COVID patients dying daily... needlessly... if they had not paid attention to the anti-vax disinformation. The OP said nothing about these nurses leaving due to the vaccine mandate.

I know of no medical facility that has "reached their goal of nurses". Such a growing field that needs all the personnel they can recruit/train/employ. Probably why the granddaughter works 40+ hours at a nursing home, two half days at a chiropractor's office, while trying to keep up with her coursework towards her RN certification. That's why it is almost criminal a small segment of the population is so enamored with those spreading hate and disinformation they influence even our health care workers to stay home rather than use their training to save lives.

Thank you for speaking truthfully about COVID-19 and its effect on the dying patients and dedicated health care workers. Bless your granddaughter, I thank her and wish her the best. Hoping people will get smart and this deadly pandemic will subside in the near future. The hate, disinformation and deadly lies have got to stop for all concerned.
