As a primary care nurse, I have seen my patients have critical care be delayed and denied.

Oh Dear Lord! We are critically short nurses but patient admissions keep coming! We have beds but NO nurses. The stress, the anxiety, the moral injury is overwhelming! We are in a healthcare crisis. Write your MP & MPP #nursingshortage #onhealth #onpoli #patientsafety #cdnhealth
