My goodness! I heard a 6am interview on the CBC about the need for more *Home Support* workers in the capital region. When asked what the workers do, the Government minion-ette was careful in her words. She was saying in the area she represents there is a need for 200 workers but they have only 50. What she did NOT say is that those 200 will be expected to work part-time and split-shifts and disrespected and disappointed and sent into situations where they have been set-up.
Community Care is what this Government calls *home support*.Community Care-less is what the clients call it. -------> gotta cope... go here for help if needed! <-------

One by one, the best and most motivated of us leave the Nursing profession.
Hard to do a great job when there are politics involved at every level.
*Managers* who are appointed, not elected to save money and make heartless decisions.
Every action they take screams privitization, every cut and chop and reference to *hiring privately* means another job another UNION job they are trying to dispose of.
Do you think we are all stupid?
Noone does a Nursing job for the money.
Soon, if this ridiculous notion of taking the heart out of healthcare does not cease, noone at all will do the job, period. Instead we will have untrained and unskilled workers who HATE their jobs and only need the cash, prolly minimal, performing the most intimate and personal of care criteria.
So this is for the Case Managers who think that it is acceptable to ask a tax paying senior paying maximum rate to hire privately. This is for the Supervisors who say one thing and do another. This is for all you know-it-alls: God is watching.
You will have to account to the highest of all sources.
One day, your heartlessness will come back and bite you.

LTC/HSW: "Those Housekeepers think they know everything."
CHW: "We work way harder than those Facility people and for what?"
LPN: "Those Care Aids always think they know better."
RN: "Who do those uppity LPNs think they are? They are barely trained and now they are doing NURSES work."
BSC/RN: "If you took your degree like I did you would KNOW why."
DRs: "Those poor delusional Nurses, acting like they were Doctors. Really!"
Specialists: "He doesnt have a speciality! He has no right to comment on this case!"
Managers: "Overpaid Healthcare professionals at every level are taking a free ride on the public purse! It has to stop!"
ME: " I see you. Never think otherwise. And I am not the only one. "
The inmates are running the asylum; getting tenure for it; and pensions.
Outrageous benefits and bouses are going into the hands of the few for contracting out of province and trimming wages and chopping pensions.
THIS BC for sale.
oh wait: Make that SOLD.
SOLD-OUT!
yeah, I see you.
