This is America
Unless you’re in Florida, where they put the infants in the fields to get an early start on the harvest.
If it can cry, it can gather rye
if it can wail, it can haul bales
Reminds me of this short by an L&D nurse.
As a side note: when an old employer switched from Cerner to Epic they started out the first set of classes explaining Epic's billing system and showing us how nurses would now be expected to bill for supplies and services. I think they realized how many of us would have not billed for stuff or stopped documenting certain things we knew would be billed more for, because they stopped talking about that pretty quickly.
They'll make us do every other job in the hospital instead of hiring support staff
- they'll make us clean and turnover rooms because they don't wanna pay for EVS,
- they'll make us distribute food trays because they don't wanna hire dietary aides,
- they'll have us drawing all our own labs because they don't want to hire phlebotomists,
- they'll have us doing case management because they don't want to hire social workers
- they'll have us exercising the patients because they don't want to hire physical therapists,
- they'll have us doing breathing treatments because they don't want to hire respiratory therapists,
- they'll even have us figuring out how to entertain the patients in psych because they don't want to hire recreational and occupational therapists.
Then they'll get mad because we're not doing any of those jobs as well as a specialized support staff would AND we're not getting actual nurse shit done fast enough. But billing? Oh they don't trust us with billing.
As a final note: other nurses also think this is hilarious. Honestly that community is most of what keeps me going back to reddit. BoRU is getting pretty stale / repetitive, but I can't find that kind of nurse-to-nurse or even hcw-to-hcw commiseration on lemmy, and there's a lot of reasons why but the end result is that it's just difficult to grow that kind of community here.
