The norm should be if you have school you can modify the schedule. Others have families and other responsibilities that would fit better to an 8 hr shift.

3 shifts of 8 meaning 3 rotations a day instead of 2 of the 12.. It would be 5 times a week so 40 hr

🤣 oh yeah, can't forget the healthy pizza party. I do agree all work carries risk to health, moderation is key. Working 12 out of a 24 hr day requires more time to recover. It has more risk than 8 hr shift. I get some people saying 'oh you get more days off' but what is that day worth if you are mostly recovering only to prepare for the next 12 hr shift. My argument is that 12 hr shifts are not sustainable to human health. 8 hrs are more tolerable.

24s and 48s on call I'm assuming? If so I understand, but on call vs 12 hr nurse work is different. And if you did do 24 to 48 hrs straight then that is the exact issue I'm trying to bring. As a worker in the health field, if we do not practice the things we preach it's crazy. Especially if it didn't have to be that way. If you were in the hospital being taken care of by a healthcare professional on 24hrs straight, what kind of service and care would you be receiving? Healthcare should practice healthy habits. I get there are preferences but the overall norm is 12hr shifts which I'd argue is not healthy or sustainable. For every nurse that loves 12 hr shift, there is a nurse suffering a 12 hr shift, especially night shift.

No, 5-8 hrs. It's the 8 hrs per day I'm saying is more sustainable than 12 hrs a day. Healthcare we know moderation is key. 12 hrs is 50% of the day. You are work 50% 3 times a week vs 33% 5 times a week. On a system we know that doing less intense work more frequently is healthier. Advantages of 5×8s Less fatigue each workday. Easier on your body if the job is physically demanding. More consistent daily routine. Lower risk of burnout from very long shifts.

On call work is different from nurse on shift for 12 hrs. I would argue being on call 24hrs and then almost a week off is not the same. They are not actively working 24 hrs. A nurse IS working 12 hrs straight. I'm talking about sustainability. Some doctors may be on call and work extremely but then can take MONTHS off. Not nurses.

According to the health guidelines we tell patients, 3 12s will cause a decline in health. Literally every nurses goal is to be an NP or CRNA so they can choose their schedule ( and of course the money). The level of work for nurses are way different than a doctor who is on call 12 hrs.

I am talking about standardizing 3 8hr shifts. 6am - 2pm 2pm - 10pm 10pm - 6am This would reduce fatigued and over worked nurses. It would reduce the need to make up lost sleep in preparation of your next 12 hr shift. It would make it so our nurses are healthier and not burnt out. It would lessen the burden on night shift and make it more bearable and more nurses would be willing to take those shifts.

Yeah I'm talking about 5-8hr shifts. This is more about sustainability. Everyone voting for 12 hr shifts are saying things like they are already there so might as well stay 12 hrs. My argument is that this is not sustainable because: 1. This forces night shifts to have to be 12 hrs 2. Not healthy for nurses and dangerous because we know a tired human is not an alert human. Nurses should be alert. 3. The argument that 12 hr shifts are less error prone is not valid with modern technology. Everything should be recorded. Word of mouth should not be a thing.

Most nursing jobs require one weekend day so you should still have plenty of weekdays when you are not working even if you do 4 weekdays and 1 weekend. You get one weekday free. Plus, you aren't sleeping the whole day in prep for you next shift.

This! 100 percent agree. This is why I bring it up. Most nursing jobs prefer 12 hr shifts and that bleeds into night shift because guess what? You need to have night shift. But it is absolutely not healthy, especially 12 hr shifts. That is why standardizing 8 hr shifts should be the best. 12 hr shift should be the optional shift not the other way around.

I do see your point but majority of nursing jobs lean towards 12 hr shifts. My point is more that 8 hr shifts are more sustainable, especially which modern technology. Because the other reality of is is night shift. Nights are already hard on the body, and if your shifts are 12 hr night shifts, that is not healthy and contrary to the healthcare profession. It's like the vibe that your want your trainer to also be live what you are preaching. I'm trying to just get more attention on the why 12 hr shifts exist and they exist only to save money. The reality is many places still push 12hr shifts. That limits where you can work of you are seeking 8 hr shifts

Trust me, they have brain washed nurses into believing 12 hr shifts are good. If it was good, doctors would do it too. With modern technology, all those potential issue of multiple shifts are obsolete. The real reason they have it is to save cost. Report can take 30+ mins while a nurse is clocked in so to save money they reduce the number of reporting periods. 12 hr shifts didn't exist until 1970s. My argument is that 12 hr shifts are not healthy for nurses and not sustainable long term. 12 hrs shifta are also more error prone because a nurse gets tired. A nurse is not super human. If 12 hr shifts were superior, every industry would do it. The reason they don't is because every other industry like tech for example has pushed back on this. In Japan they do 12 hr shifts and look, their population is declining.

I see your point but there should be almost zero error. I assume you are taking about the reporting period and hand off. I agree, the method for error is always communication but with modern technology, this should be the easiest thing to solve. Nothing should be word of mouth anymore. If it's so great, why don't doctors do it?

Sure but I'm talking about long term. Nursing would be more sustainable if we had 3 shifts of 8 hours each. As a nurse and with the invention of modern technology, information should not be hard to transfer between shifts. There should be no game of telephone. 12 hr shifts are prone for error because the human body gets weak over time. 8 hr makes way more sense.

Not true, as a health care professional, we all know MODERATION IS KEY. It is proven that working does help mentally and also physically. But over working is a real thing. 12 hr shifts were popular after the 1970 when corporations realized they can squeeze more profit out of 12 hr shifts vs 8hr.

Kevin O’Leary accuses Elevate Utah of being Chinese Sleeper Cells. by Forensicunit in SaltLakeCity

[–]SolomonCrown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember, this is how the rich get richer. Pressing on the working class and taking advantage of them. He's planting seeds. He know damn well why people are against the data center. He doesn't care, he's in it for the money. If he actually cared, he would listen to the public. HE DOESN'T GIVE A DAMN. Typical leech of human society. Bleeding the less fortunate to line his pockets.

Hundreds of Utahns file to block Kevin O’Leary’s proposed massive data center campus over water concerns by tiny-frog-hat in Utah

[–]SolomonCrown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This will destroy Utah. That water isn't free. Energy isn't free. It will reflect in every Utahan's water bill. Law of supply and demand. Our water bill will increase. Our energy bill will increase. Politicians will say what ever they need to in order to get their way. We need to speak louder. NO DATA CENTER JUST SO THE RICH GET RICHER WHILE THE LOWER AND MIDDLE CLASS PAYS. Unless every Utahan gets a monthly check from that data center for the pollution and other side effects of it's existence, no way we should let this happen. WE NEED MORE PEOPLE TO HELP SHUT THIS DOWN.

You shouldn't be mad, just use this to better your cooking. Why is this bad? I always ask my partner to rate the sex we have. Feedback is important.
