My wife is a nurse and her employer put out a survey trying to figure out why morale was so low and what could be done. Removal of state rules around covid PPE was the number one recommendation. They are in and out of N95s based on one positive in the building along with having to set up a covid unit that then has staff that only care for the positive patient which causes a shortage elsewhere. Many of the staff have ended up with face scarring acne.

But in Oregon the OHA seems to be content on ignoring workers despite the low number of deaths in nursing homes because it’s a highly vaccinated population and just keep driving medical staff out of the state. It’s cool and good.
