There’s so much BS information in this thread I don’t know where to start.
I’ve been a nurse for 20 years. Yes, competent nurses need better pay, but it isn’t going to ever happen. Hospitals are basically Walmart. They’re run by a bunch of corporate asshats that have zero clinical experience. All that matters is the bottom line. They will continue to squeeze every penny out of the employees, increase patient load, and not allow overtime. I’ll never work for a hospital again.

The way to go would be to work at one of those private clinics like a Low T clinic or ketamine clinic that prescribe out-of-pocket medications. I’m sure they probably pay way better than any corporate hospital

I still have nightmares about my time on telemetry/ICU overflow. 6-7 patients, some with things like epidurals, blood transfusions, and insulin drips. They had me precepting when i hadn’t been out of school 6 months because there wasn’t anyone more experienced to do it. Talk about the blind leading the blind.
