Janet is a single mom who is trying to incorporate more exercise into her life. In this video, Janet sees the importance of making a change but struggles to create a plan to put in action. This is probably very common in patients.
It can affect staffing ratios, quality of equipment and many other things we really don’t stop to think about. It affects what kind of patients we can treat and how long they can stay in the hospital. This affects nurses because we are the ones that have to explain to a patient why they are being discharged when they still have an infection and still need IV antibiotics to go home on but their insurance doesn’t cover for any homehealth agency to come and do infusions and we have to teach family with no medical experience how to do this. This can be very bothersome to some nurses and this is just one brief issue I am bringing up. Other political factors could be education and how we are in such a shortage of nursing but nursing school is so expensive and getting funding to send individuals to school and for the schools to have the funding to create competent nurses.
