We have nurses in our area (FL) that aren’t getting enough hours. I have a couple friends that are RNs and they’re getting calls to not come in. Evidently the hospitals are low on patients. Probably due to the shortened stays approved by insurance. Anyway, whatever the reason is, these nurses aren’t happy they have lessened hours, but they’re happy they have a job because hospitals in our area are laying off nurses (2 other friends, with same hospital for 20 years, were laid off suddenly last Christmas.)

Not insurance, it is the government funding that is not being paid to the hosptials that are mandated to take patients but are not being paid.
Really? I have an aunt in Bradenton (can’t remember which hospital, but it’s not Manatee) who clocks 75-80 hrs/week. My aunt & uncle in N. Ft. Lauderdale can’t keep nurses on staff at their private practice, they are always hiring.
