I am your constituent and I just learned that the work environment for medical professionals in the US is not safe. Two nurses are assaulted every hour in the US.
Healthcare is the most violence prone workplace. Part of the problem is staffing shortages - FIX THAT by passing S. 1113 / HR 2350 , The Nurse Staffing Standards for Hospital Patient Safety and Quality Care Act of 2023 it sets safe limits for the number of patients each nurse can be responsible for.
I also want you to cosponsor and support S.2840 - Bipartisan Primary Care and Health Workforce Act that will enable an additional 60,000 nurses and 2000 doctors to enter the workforce.
We are all vulnerable and held hostage by the middlemen like insurers, pharmacy benefit managers, required approvals and networks that increase frustration levels and make us feel helpless and you can fix that by passing HR 3421 the improved Medicare for All Act. Thank you. Go do it.
