That's a great question. I wish I had the answer. That is the issue. We want to provide safe, ethical care to our patients. We want to make sure there are enough staff to safely provide dignified care.
The reality is that care is being provided in environments that lack resources. They lack human resources. I think that's why we're looking to you. We need to have some kind of support. Provide us the staff, training and appropriate environment, so nurses and health care workers can do what we do best, and provide care to those people.
We recognize that in those situations where you have a demented elderly person who's confused, they are scared. Their behaviours are not directed at us personally, but the reality is that nurses and other health care workers are becoming injured. We don't have enough of us already. We're looking to you, as the decision-makers, to create change, so we can have safe health care places for our patients.
