There is no freedom, work is turning into a COVID hospital, expectation is that it will remain that way until feb march next year. Some of the future crisis planning stuff would make your head spin. Im getting flogged, my team is. I wish people would just follow the rules. Got no idea how we are going to manage, full PPE and body armour over summer is not something im looking forward to.
From my perspective what andrews is doing is sensible. What the public are unaware of is the staffing crisis in hospitals, are number of factors are driving it. Burn out is probably the biggest issue, heaps of senior nurses are saying **** this and leaving for other jobs. Also nurses can make a lot more money outside the system, doing vaccinations and testing.
Its a daily **** fight brother.
