Just had a call with member services at my insurance asking how I can get weekly therapy because 2-5 weeks in between that they’ve been giving me is absolutely ineffective. They replied that their therapy is stretched so thin. It’s awful.

They (hospital bosses or whatever controls the cost-cutting stuff) are hurting everyone. Patients can’t get quality or timely care. Healthcare workers have to help so many traumatic cases alongside the boo-boos. But the workers are expected to treat it like a regular job and just come in like it’s normal.

A patient dies because of a tired surgeon’s mistake. The surgeon might lose everything. The big-wigs take no responsibility for their staffing cuts to the surgery department.
