Y'all know what I want!! NURSE PATIENT RATIOS BILL TO PASS! We just picked up more cosponsors! ?⭐❄️☃️?? Overall though, peace and love.

I think this is too presumptuous. So let's agree to disagree. ?

I agree with your approach. ?

Why in the world do all these children want to get out/away from school, esp the ones who are frequent flyers? It sounds like a mass exodus of kids trying to escape the institution. What are they wanting to leave so badly? Why so many?

Exactly! This is what I think is the right path.

Anytime my child complains AND vomits, I better get a call! I'm coming to pick my child up. Do you work when you vomit? How are they suppose to focus on learning?

Who are you to say my kid is not resilient enough? Do you know in particular what families are going through? They are not adults. How do you know there is something coming up for that child? You're assuming too much. How do you know the kid is not really sick? Do you have testing? You just diagnose they are faking it?

Doesn't mean she doesn't have Covid again. Also, I thought it was policy to stay/send home if a child vomits. It has to be cleared for 24 hrs.

If a kid feels sick or needs a mental health day, they should be able to go home especially if they are making good grades. The school policies these days are borderline authoritarianism and too strict. I feel sorry for kids these days.

I want to scream! ?

I don't mean to argue with other workers telling them my work is worth more. Im telling my employer that HEY! You have to pay me for my education, risk, and my work! I expect a Dr. to be paid higher than me. I think everyone should be paid more than what is considered FAIR in this society. But professionals need to be paid for what they invested in education and practice. All EMPLOYERS need to understand that labor is worth a hell of a lot more than they are paying us as they take most of the profit behind closed doors in back rooms. I say a worker at McDonalds should be able to sustain a life on their wage and that means make more than $25/hr. It also means that my pay should be higher too. EMPLOYERS WANT US TO FIGHT LIKE THIS SO THAT THEIR ABUSES ARE NOT IN FOCUS. EMPLOYERS NEED TO PAY US MORE. Productivity and profits have risen exponentially since the 70s and pay has stayed practically stagnant as they increase work hours and work loads on less people. I'm not fighting other workers.

... and it's not eligible to participate in the incentive program either (sarcasm) wow. I didn't know professionals were expected to work for entry level minimum wage.

I think it needs to be compared to other professions because it has to do with the worth of what we do physically and mentally for doctors and patients and the risks taken during work. Nursing is a highly intellectual & physical field. We take on disease risks. We take on health risks from non stop stress, infreq to no breaks for something as human as drinking and eating and sitting. We are communicating with others most of the time. It's non stop. The thing is this can be fixed easily by hiring more nurses and staff instead of loading up a nurse with 2-3 patients worth of work. I want 2-3x pay and the CNA pay on top. But no, I won't work long this way. The hospital as adapted to their revolving door and use it to hire cheaper. All corps are running too lean and they don't care what we think about it until employees leave. No one wants to live a life like this. Quality of life matters. Also, this is a female dominated field. Women, from what I've witnessed and experienced, seem to always be assigned the busy, detailed, care work in life, putting everyone before themselves. This field takes advantage of that and many other fields do the same to women. We don't even have an equal pay law and it's 2021. We're talking keeping people alive. Seems like this society rewards making people money more than making people healthy. And for those who say to this, "Yes, that's the way the world works", it doesn't work. It's not sustainable and we are bearing witness to this now. PS: CEO/Admin pay is overinflated. Nurses should be in the 6 figures now. Professionals should be making 6 figures.

oops I mean the employer.

For 100/yr the employee should pay for it. ?

I think it is relative to the perceived self worth of a nurse. If a nurse has never made over 27/hr, then 35/hr is gonna look pretty good. But to another nurse that's peanuts. Depends on the actual position and job requirements. Nursing is a profession. If I have to know info that the doctor has to know then I need to be closely compensated, esp if Im taking on the physical part and risks. I think RNs should be paid at least 50/hr across the board and that nurse patient ratios bill needs to be passed into law.

WooHoo!! 2 more cosponsors: Rep. Sánchez, Linda T. [D-CA-38]11/09/2021 Rep. Barragan, Nanette Diaz [D-CA-44]11/09/2021 Total so far 54 since reintroduction May 2021

Agreed. ZDoggMD videos always feel therapeutic. https://zdoggmd.com/?s=moral+injury I was thinking how in many ways our society has been experiencing moral injury as well. But healthcare exponentially so.

smh

So this is another reason to get out of nursing. On top of the horrible conditions:pay:patient ratios we get to get threatened and reported as a result of an environment that creates the problems. wow.

More sponsors! Cosponsor: 10/25/2021: Rep. Bass, Karen [D-CA-37] Cosponsor: 10/25/2021: Rep. Maloney, Carolyn B. [D-NY-12] Cosponsor: 10/25/2021: Rep. Roybal-Allard, Lucille [D-CA-40] Cosponsor: 10/25/2021: Rep. Jackson Lee, Sheila [D-TX-18]

I want a lot more money and so do most RNs I know. Travel RNs showed how valuable RNs are. I expect respect no matter where I work. I want Fed Nurse Patient Ratios in Congress to pass and unions to keep corps in check.

Americans are slammed with so much bad news of social deterioration everywhere that nursing is just another problem on the list.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT!! Do you have links to your IG and YT?
