    Cdn "journalist" blames Nurses for covid spikes

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    She's developed a pattern as a journalist for only reporting things that are "inconvenient" for privileged communities that also happen to be predominantly caucasian. This incident happened over the...

    Cdn "journalist" blames Nurses for covid spikes

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    She's blaming public health, which is basically staffed by nurses. Without calling out the gov't for the on-going cuts it's been making to public health staffing and

    Cdn "journalist" blames Nurses for covid spikes

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    It is an issue of privilege (which non-caucasian people don't benefit from), and she's defending against holding a specific population of society accountable for endangering others due to their...

    Mean nurse?

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to will_power27's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Not a concern? Careful now... 1-3 patients/nurse can be a hella heavy workload depending on individual patient complexity and acuity. That why ICU nurses sometimes only have 1 pt, because that 1 pt...

    two topics: layoffs and freedom

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to singleye's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I had a really, really satisfying dream last night that nurses everywhere collectively went on strike to drive the point home. For one beautiful moment, the public actually supported us and turned...

    Mean nurse?

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to will_power27's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Sometimes, "I kept them alive for you" is enough because almost all clinical areas have electronic shift report in addition to progress notes (which every nurse should be reading especially for their...

    Mean nurse?

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to will_power27's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Why not have a chat with her directly instead of speaking about her to other staff? She's only been on the unit for 4 months. Perhaps, give her the benefit of the doubt that she's not use to the way...

    Where do you stand on opening things up during the Pandemic?

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in Disaster Preparation

    We do need to re-open the economy! However, things cannot go back to the status quo. We have to do things differently and we need people with the proper education/experience (ex. urban planners,...

    "Oh so you still have a job?"

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to Tait's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Never forget (see image below) that THIS is how leadership/governments really feel about us. The support is almost always just veneer. Pocket your salary and try to advocate for your colleagues...

    Cdn "journalist" blames Nurses for covid spikes

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    There is nearly no point for the considerable and exhausting efforts of health care when people don't want to listen and the government won't police them. How are people being given the freedom to...

    Cdn "journalist" blames Nurses for covid spikes

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Yes, I do! At best, her expertise stops with a book she wrote about the perils of being a bridesmaid from a wedding she was kicked out of. You want public health advice from this person?! LOL. People...

    Cdn "journalist" blames Nurses for covid spikes

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Our government also made cuts and enacted a hiring freeze to public health last year. Our current public health departments/nurses are bloody exhausted and struggling. Yet, no one is attacking the...

    Canada’s preparedness compared to USA

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to meganvl's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Currently, there are units in certain hospitals in Ontario that are telling their nursing staff this more or less. They get nothing, and many are working with home-made masks. I'm not kidding! My rage...

    Canada’s preparedness compared to USA

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to meganvl's topic in Disaster Preparation

    100% The minute someone suggest we martyr ourselves they AUTOMATICALLY lose a lot of credibility. It's totally contradictory to promote the idea that nurses shouldn't have a sense of...

    These are just a couple examples of signs erected by the city. We've also put up barricades with larger freestanding signs in some areas. Public Health nurses are run off their feet from exhaustion....

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I'm getting really tired of people like this airhead "journalist" who have ZERO frontline/healthcare/medical/nursing experience telling us how we should be doing better for all of societies failures....

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Really, apart from curing people of their own self-centeredness... all we could do is strap people to chairs and start yelling at them. What other responsibilities should nurses/health officials be...

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    EXACTLY! At this point there is ZERO excuse. This "journalist" Siri Agrell thinks these thousands of (majority Caucasian) kids should get a pass because kids will be kids although these kids are in...

    Has anyone left nursing job due to COVID19 virus?

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to Tirednurseandmomma14's topic in Disaster Preparation

    You did the right thing! Don't EVER be another "warm" body lining up to die at the slaughterhouse (aka hospital). Stay home and stay safe until we get the supplies we need to do our job safely. Police...

    Do Not Compare COVID-19 (Coronavirus) To Seasonal Influenza

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to 42pines's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Is the Coronavirus beginning the breakdown of our society?

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to Emergent's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Some of my colleagues said this too, half-jokingly. I'm not a religious person, but who knows..... maybe the imbalance of the planet/universe is like "enough with these parasites (aka humans)" So, is...
