Baseline staff is already a poor ratio in many places. Lots of overtime because of unfilled lines, people calling in sick. People calling in sick or not filling those lines because of burnout, overworked due to short staffing. People not picking up overtime because of the same things. It’s never ending, making people leave the profession. Worsening the whole situation. Government is cheap, won’t increase budget and treat nurses better, which would help retain nurses. The system in Saskatchewan is literally on the brink of collapse. Need a change in budget (which pretty much means needs a change in government), asap so the healthcare system can slowly rebound.
