Definitely seems like a case of too many chiefs not enough Indians.



Oh wait, is that cultural appropriation?

Good Lord this. Multiple times a week some random admin nurse shows up in my clinic and ties up my staff so she can spend an hour or so looking for some infraction to justify her position.

If a nurse manager starts IV’s, admits patients, and takes care of them after a procedure, is that direct patient care? What if they were laid off in the middle of a shift?

Idiot.

I agree but tell that to the regulatory/accrediting bodies that enforce those rules when they come around for survey. Without that certification, you aren’t doing shite.

Sounds like a bedside nurse

Who they will likely try to hire back at lower salary

Well. They won’t have much time to take care of patients if having to sit in meetings most of the day. I guess this rubs me wrong bc I know health care workers who work hard and love what they do. One I know has received thank you notes from patients. She has the chance to go all the way to her masters to be at the top, but prefers to stay where she is and be hands on bc she loves helping her patients vs evals and paperwork. Insurers and greed is ruining quality health care.

So what’s your point? Some a-hole is trying to say nobody providing care was laid off today.

Are accountants and positions outside of medical being let go?

I know of some clinical (supervisor/direct patient care) RNs let go. I know of a high up VP on the operations side let go. It seems to be touching all levels.

I didnt say that

If a nurse got fired she was likely in a manager or supervisory position

Not a run of the mill bedside nurse

Again, this is not true. Bedside nurses, LPNs, NPs, and charge nurses, that I know personally and are very good at their jobs, have been fired.

10% of the IS department was let go. Lots of directors, managers, and new hires.

I’m so sorry. Maybe that’s why the person who messaged me so upset that her supervisor was let go. Not a nurse, but in another medical area and had patients. She liked her very much. F Ochsner.
