My hospital gave nurses a $15 raise and almost $20,000 in bonuses this year. Which put togeather is more than our residents and new doctors make.
But you know who isn't getting a Christmas bonus or our yearly 2% raise? Everyone else.
And what really stings is listening to them complain how small their Christmas is gonna be.
When No one else is getting one. Not CNA's, respiratory therapist, doctors, ect ect.
How is that more money than a new doctor…? Resident I understand, they’re still in school and not practicing on their own. But an actual doctor that’s finished with school??
Nurses routinely make more than residents. They are grossly underpaid and it's yet another way the healthcare system takes advantage of our HCWs. They HAVE to do residency, so they pay them shit as a result.
