Submit ReviewThe COVID pandemic put a constant strain on doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers. There were long hours, large patient loads, and a constantly changing virus. Now, COVID hospitalizations have eased, but many nurses say their working conditions have not improved. Some say they've only gotten worse. On today's episode, we’re digging into how staffing shortages at Michigan hospitals are pushing nurses out of the field–and what that means for patient care.
GUESTS:
Nikia Parker, emergency room nurse and paramedic in the Traverse City region
Christopher Friese, professor of nursing and director at the Center for Improving Patient and Population Health at the University of Michigan
Doug Tribou, Morning Edition host at Michigan Radio
