[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nurses are not underpaid.[/quote] this. [/quote] Geez. Then why are so many places looking to hire nurses, and perpetually short of staff? Nursing is an intense cognitive, physical, and psychological challenge. At least bedside is, and that’s the main places nurses are underpaid, as evidenced by the failure to retain experienced staff. But let’s just pump out more new nurses, so we can continue having nurses work bedside for 2-3 years and then leave the profession or, sometimes, that practice area. Nobody thinks they need to care until they’re surprised to have a loved one in the hospital and then, believe me, the shortage of experienced staff will impact you negatively. Nurse, who had a loved one hospitalized this summer.[/quote] Most bedside nursing isn't rocket science and is not an intense cognitive chalenge. ICUs at academic medical centers, maybe. But floor nursing, no. [/quote]
