There's a certain amount of "blood from a stone" going on with nurses that people don't seem to realize.
There weren't enough of us in 2019, and a huge chunk of us either left the profession or fucking died in the past 3 years and combined with the normal attrition rate now there's nowhere near enough of us, and you can't just train up a new nurse in a couple months, and a competent one takes years.
This is going to get worse before it gets better.
