Reply #15: Nurses being mistreated in so many ways!

[oscar111]

i casually recall hearing so many stories of it.

Foreigners brought in to cheaply replace US nurses.

Nurses quitting because of the lack of respect from drs.
High turnover as a result.

LPN's dressed up as RN's and made to do RN tasks.

Nurses given overlarge no's of patients.

The field seems to be under a terrible attack from the greedheads who run things now.
We all suffer. Nurses and patients both.

We must reverse this if we are to climb up from being 25th in longevity. It was about 20th in 2OOO, IIRC.
=============
fm WORLD HEALTH REPORT 2OOO, from the UN: the US is ---
37th in healthcare delivery system quality
72 in the overall health status of our population

we pay the most per capita.

not typos, 37 and 72. Incredible.

France is the best, overall.
