Two months after firing unvaccinated hospital staff, Houston Methodist is one of several area hospitals experiencing a severe shortage of medical personnel. Media reports say hospitals have “reached a breaking point” because of a flood of COVID-19 cases.
In an editorial published Tuesday, the Houston Chronicle said the 25-county hospital area that includes Houston had more patients in hospital beds—more than 2,700—than at any point in 2021. News reports make it clear that hospitals are struggling to keep up.
While most media reports focus on LBJ Hospital, reports also make it clear other hospitals, including Houston Methodist, are experiencing similar struggles. The Houston Chronicle says Harris Health System (which includes LBJ) is short some 250 nurses, while the University of Texas Medical Branch has requested an additional 100 nurses to help address staff shortages at four hospitals.
Baylor St. Luke’s Medical Center, a private Houston hospital jointly owned by Baylor College and a local healthcare system, said the hospital “is definitely being impacted” by the nurse shortage.
As for Houston Methodist, the hospital is reportedly struggling as well—although they’ve yet to admit it publicly.
I have friends and family working as someone of these hospitals with supposed "covid surges". They say its the same as usual. Oh and they all had shortages of staff long before covid. They fired that staff while having shortages. Hospital administrators are idiots.
The article says there are 2700 covid cases in 25 counties. That averages barely over 100 per county, and we don't know the distribution by county or total number of beds,so it is a useless statement. Administrators are definitely idiots.
Plus they used PCR tests which the CDC has now admitted have NEVER SUCCESSFULLY IDENTIFIED any "virus" called Sars COV 2 so....even the few "cases" they claim exist are complete nothing burgers and very possibly a severe case of cold, flu or even potentially side effect from the spike proteins producing factories in the people who accepted the experimental gene therapy.
I figured the hospital situation wasn't as being portrayed, but the article is still a picture of how the virus situation is being depicted.
Was in the hospital last weekend and they were short on Saturday morning. Nurse was a bitch I had to ignore. It’s their fault and they made out like bandits during the lockdowns so it’s their time to suffer too. Sorry to say. I’m done with hospitals
More than likely they're freemasons who have to serve satan, or have their black mail released to the public.
The hospitals are not overwhelmed. They are understaffed.
nursing shortages have been a 30 year operation to bring in 3rd world trained medical staff. primarily from Philippines.
EDIT: I have worked with some outstanding Filipino nurses - no shade on them.
but they're used for the hard to fill, thankless jobs - particularly nursing homes - which perpetuates the business model of 'warehousing' patients -- and made Filipino nurses most at risk to die of covid.
Yes was about to say this.
“How could we have foreseen this nurse shortage?! Oh well I guess we should import more 3rd world nurses.” Administrators probably
I hope all those nurses sue the hell out of them. The lawyers will be standing in line
I'm in a rural area of NY. Cuomo just ordered all hosp and nursing home staff to be vaccinated. Our area veterans home (built at a cost of 71 million) has shut down two 42 bed units, is about to close another, and is poised to lose another 100 staff due to work load, politics & vax.
Working in a hospital full of little people in a large city. Volumes are higher than at any point in 2019 (what we compare 2021 to since 2020 was a wash for little people).
We didn’t hire people for almost a year so now we are very short-staffed. Highest volume with lowest staff and everyone is burned out. Will be interesting to see how it goes when the vax deadline approaches and 30% of the staff are gone.
Agenda 21 tactics taking out as many millions and then billions of us as possible. I wonder if they have handpicked the 500 million who will be worthy to continue on in their Brave New World or if, other than themselves, they are leaving that to chance.
Some hospitals can scoop up all the help if they are smart. They are not.
Time for hefty rehiring bonuses that come directly out of the executives' salaries.
This is the way! Starve the beast.
Duh
