@foundryrat743 Wow do I agree. I do think Covid had a lot to do with it. I was recently hospitalized and I asked each nurse how long since they had graduated. All of them...ALL... had only been a nurse for 1 year. I think many caring good nurses left because they became fed up during covid. They saw what was actually happening, and could not longer be a part of it. So now we are left (many times) with book learned inexperienced young people who are in it for the money.

@foundryrat743 You hit the nail on the head! It's the Medicare ........no good reimbursement or you will see dr going the other way and order every test they can think of and keep you on the road going for appointments/procedures just to pull in those Medicare dollars???
