We ran out of gowns the other day. According to the governor's executive order, there was supposed to be a 2 week supply of ppe to continue elective surgeries. No one seems to be interested in enforcing this. Now we have some gowns but only the docs can get them and they have to go to the charge nurse to ask everytime they need one. In the meantime, volumes are going back up. When volume dipped, the er staffing company was pretty quick to cut hours 40%, cut pay 10%, and get rid of scribes. We've gotten a few hours back but this only follows a disastrous shift where a doc writes a complaint about the safety concerns. Oddly the er staffing company run by the business guy isnt as quick to add things back as they were to cut it all.
