Younger nurses are moving more into stuff like personal care Exactly. ACA is causing the same issues here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YES, it took 13 years to effect the industry to the point that we have articles like this. Add to that the millions of immigrants coming in to the US and it is a huge burden on the system.

Add to that the millions of immigrants coming in to the US and it is a huge burden on the system. Stay on topic…if anything the ACA has lessened the burden as people are less likely to use the ER for their primary care. In the years leading into the pandemic, there were roughly enough new nurses entering the pipeline to replace the ones that retired, according to a 2022 McKinsey & Co report titled “Assessing the lingering impact of COVID-19 on the nursing workforce.” But covid changed everything. “Over the past two years, McKinsey found that nurses consistently, and increasingly, report planning to leave the workforce at higher rates compared with the past decade,” the report found, a trend that continued even as covid cases fell. From coast to coast, mounting nursing shortages have triggered a widespread set of issues for nurses and patients, according to conversations with nine nurses. Nurses say there have been significant declines in patient care, including delayed cancer treatments and critical checkups for expecting mothers. Medications are administered late or missed altogether. The shortage has also taken a toll on nurses’ mental and physical health, as they are forced to skip meal and rest breaks and get little recovery time between shifts.

Yup my niece, although Canadian has been working as a travelling nurse in the US for the last 7-8 years and loves the change of job sites and takes absolute full advantage of where ever she is, surf's now after being in Hawaii and California. Now she met a guy who loves to travel and his work allows him to also so they live life like a vacation. It's great seeing all her pics from all over the USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member EvilBird Posted January 16, 2023 Gold Member Share Posted January 16, 2023 I met a traveling Nurse last year Snowmobiling in Vermont. She was working mostly in the Midwest , flew home to VT just to ride her Sled for the weekend. She had same exact Pro S as me actually thats how we started talking. She said she loved it and got paid well. Seems like a good gig for young single people not tied down. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
