There has always been a problem in Ireland of healthcare workers not being paid their worth, its been reported in the news ever since I can remember. And still nothing has been done about it. After decades of abuse, the Irish government needs to get its act together.
Nursing staff need a liveable wage. Instead of wasting money on RTE and data centres, put it into healthcare

Rural hospital welcomes first student midwives in more than a decade
By Hannah Moon
A central Queensland community fought for years for the return of the local birthing service. The next challenge is attracting and retaining the people who will keep it running.

"We Called It Discrimination. They Called It Fascism.
In the mid-1930s, one Harlem nurse began to see the devaluation of African American lives around her as entwined with the emergent fascist threat in Europe.
(. . .)
LaGuardia never published his own commission’s findings. Goldwater stayed in power. So did a Harlem Hospital board member whose 'racial attitude,' the commissioners wrote, 'like that of Hitler towards the Jews, causes him to ignore and belittle the scientific ability of medical men who are black.'
The hospital’s Jewish and Black staff had also noticed parallels in the prejudiced treatment they received. As she learned about Hitler’s anti-Semitic policies from European colleagues, Kee began to realize how U.S. state-sponsored racism similarly enabled violence. 'We only knew the Ku Klux Klan was killing people like us, and we had never put them together with the government' and the anti-Black discrimination it enforced, she recalled in the interview decades later. 'So now we’re matching what’s happening in Germany to the Jews ... to what’s happening to us here in the United States.'
When the 1936 diarrhea outbreak struck, Kee saw the hospital’s racist machinery in motion again. In 'cause of death' reports sent to the city each month, she discovered, many of the infant fatalities were being attributed to syphilis and gonorrhea: a lie that obscured the understaffing problem and fed stereotypes about Black people being prone to venereal disease. Nor had conditions improved for most of the staff. A few months after the babies’ deaths, prominent Harlem dentist Arnold Donawa accused Goldwater of 'criminal negligence amounting to murder' when thirty-four Black nurses with influenza were denied treatment at their own workplace."

VIHA Risk Assessment chart for protective gear is another example of BC health's ongoing failcare. I had to ask for this additional handwritten sign to be put up to protect my Mom better in Jubilee Hospital. I had told staff the VIHA signs they put up weren't clear enough & that we need everyone entering her room to be masked up. Their response was that Mom didn't meet the risk assessment for required masking. I responded with, the risk assessment chart is absolutely flawed if it's not requiring people to mask up around an extremely immune compromised liver cancer patient. You're health care workers. You should know that cancer patients need to be protected. You should not need to be told these basic proactive precautions, especially as fellow health care providers. Put your PPE/masks on.
Full stop.

In this study, one in 3 nurses had thoughts of suicide- this was a particular issue for younger nurses. Doug Ford's government pressures nurses by cutting staff and degrading the quality of patient care.

Nurses perform tasks like body cleansing, right?
Observing this not as criticism but as a truth, the physical body, without exception—you and I—is impure and ages.
It brings illness and various kinds of suffering.
We cannot have expectations or attachments to the body, which is a breeding ground for disease and the source of suffering.

By Olivia Nunes-Malek

I just fucking ripped into a health care worker at Jubilee Hospital. I'm so fucking DONE with every single person in health care who isn't masking up at work. Hope you all fucking suffer covid & worse. You fucking dipshits.

Audio report of my last phone conversation with Mom's nurse tonight. She's going to relay to entire unit. They better fucking do better when I arrive, tomorrow. I'll rip right into them, if they don't.

I'm the daily, highly visual hospital visitor, who is regularly shaming health care workers to do better. I should not have to do this. They should all know fucking better than to be told by me that they aren't practicing any preventative health care & are responsible for countless unnecessary deaths/social murders. It is fucked up.
