Scary Times

As economy issues continue to build, even my beloved hospital, MCCG, is not immune to the ill effects. This has been a shaky week for many employees due to the cutbacks that have spawned several layoffs, from top to bottom. Fortunately, my job as a hands-on nurse involved in direct patient care is safe and in high demand, but events like this do cause you to step back and be grateful for a good job, even if at times you feel stretched thin to begin with. I hope to always be in a position to support healthcare improvement and investment, both on a local and national level. It is truly one of the most important aspects of society.
