They’re not working too hard to fill the gaps across the country, either. My wife is attending nursing school and is nearly ready to graduate. Over the course of her program, she has seen an attrition rate of over 85%. That means, for every 100 students, about 87 of them are getting dropped. One marking period below a grade of 85 drops you.
These are not dumb people. They passed the entrance exam and demonstrated they have the grade point average to get into the program. In some cases, they made it 3/4 of the way through the program and struggled with a couple of classes, only to be dropped.
A lot of this is the result of poor quality of education. I’ve listened to several of her lectures. I scratch my head how the teacher was able to pass the programs herself.
This, along with the artificially generated problem of vaccine mandates for medical staff has caused a serious problem in the profession.
Strong union most likely.
In the past month, four emergency room nurses ... have quit at the Eureka hospital where Matt Miele works.

It should be super easy to hire replacement ER nurses. So, go ahead with those draconian vaccine mandates, all you administrators. There won’t be any staff shortages. No sir. No problem.
Requiring a vaxx without doing a titer first seems to me to be really insane.
—
If they ran a blood titer before giving the vaccine, probably half the country already has natural antibodies to Covid. Do you have any idea of the harm that would do to the Pfizer profit margins!?
## “One hospital told us they had 474 unvaccinated employees. They did a big education and incentive push. Only 12 people signed up,” said Richardson, the hospital association’s attorney.

>>Nursing schools from public colleges and universities have so few openings, applicants that have 4.0 GPAs often have to wait 2-3 years and hope for an opening.
Yep, a few years back the valedictorian of my daughters HS class couldn’t get into the nursing program at the local state college - way too many applicants for too few slots - she did get into a private school many hours away (and at 3X the cost)
Scripps...told CalMatters that it is serving nearly 20 percent more patients on average than before the pandemic.”
massive influx of unhealthy, uneducated foreign peasants seeking “free” medical care, coupled with policies that guarantee a massive increase in already existing medical personnel shortages ... ain’t california grand?
Conscript the nurses into state service, forcibly vaccinate them, then command them to work. If they decline, just put them in prison! Should be easy for you. Piece of cake.
It is getting so bad they are talking about closing the border.
What do they know that the rest of us aren’t being told?
Same thing the rest of us researched to be informed.
or
How about a mandated experimental treatment that was approved in 11 months (kind of, but not really) vs 5-7 years for a flu type virus that you have a 95.5% (non-elderly, etc.) chance of recovering from. Throw in the 10 concerns that the FDA had in 2020 that were never addressed and now free special ingredients of Graphene Oxide, Parasites, and Stainless Steel it smells like tyranny to me.
I get shot, someone else does too.
Someone needs to get a clue!
Do it the way the Aussies are doing it. Track ‘em down, haul them in, hold ‘em down and VAX ‘em. Then charge them with a crime and fine ‘em.
Nice!
From what you wrote, it kinda makes me think the powers that be are not really interested in actually having American nurses.
Bet they’ll fall all over themselves to hire from the Phillipines.
“California’s nursing shortage” is real. That’s for sure. The problem is that CA hospitals are forcing nurses to get vaccinated which is unethical and rejected by many nurses. The solution is that CA hospitals are opening up new floors and asking nurses to work 80 hours a week. Thus, if a CA nurse is qualified, vaccinated and single, then he or she can make a lot of money this year.
The vaccinated nurses probably refusing to serve the unvaccinated patients.
“We are at the intersection of dumb and evil.”
A really good point. One nurse refusing to vax said the other day, “You need me a lot more than I need you.”
There is NO nursing shortage. ( Yes, I am shouting.)
There is a shortage of:
1) Acceptable working conditions.
2) Money
I am a registered nurse. I refuse to do the job. Why?
Because I hated, hated, hated being pulled from my regular job ( ICU), with no notice at all, to work other parts of the hospital.
Yep!
