Reply to comment by Moist-Department2012 in NYC Hospitals Start Moving Sick Babies, Diverting Ambulances as Nurse Strike Looms by drpvn

Why is it "patients first" when nurses request fair compensation but not when hospital administrators pay themselves millions without even setting eyes on a patient? What makes them worth so much more when all they're doing is logistics?

You know the hospitals will not be left without nurses right? Travel nurses are a thing and will be hired to replace the staff as they strike. Do you understand this?

Good, hire the travel nurses full time then if the “real” ones go on strike

So you would accept getting paid like shit and overworked with far too many patients assigned to you than what is even remotely manageable? Why would you do that to your patients?

Not when you spout comments made from ignorance into the world. Do you think a patient to nurse ratio of 10:1 is reasonable and a nurse just needs to not be afraid of hard work to care for 10 patients?

Hospital administrators are putting lives at risks by not paying nurses what they’re worth and by not maintaining safe staffing. I used to work at one of the top hospitals in the country and holding in my pee and not being able to take a lunch break because of short staffing was a daily occurrence. You obviously have no clue what you’re talking about. Also, don’t call nurses lazy the administrators are both lazy and greedy.

Any nurse that goes on strike should be immediately terminated

The truly intellectually pathetic reality of your position is that we are in a massive nursing labor crisis because the position isn’t compensated enough for the work.

Not supporting nurses trying to make their jobs better and more economically desirable is actually the thing that will lead to fewer and fewer of the nurses we as a society need.
