Everything is in such a state of chaos in just that industry that it's going to take years to get back to where anybody knows what even happened, and I'm sure that's kind of how record keeping is in the hospital right now too.
Imagine working in an environment where safety violations and acts of violence are swept under the rug. That's the reality for many healthcare workers in Northern Health, and it's the focus of this episode of the Recovery Machine Podcast. Hosts Nathan McLean and Corey Williams tackle the recent $355K fine imposed on Northern Health by WorkSafeBC for failing to report multiple safety infractions, including violence against staff members.
They dig into the investigation reports, revealing how these oversights add to the already immense pressure and stress faced by healthcare workers in British Columbia. The discussion also touches on the broader implications of these violations, such as the inefficiencies created by corporate culture and government policies.
If you're concerned about the state of healthcare in Prince George or want to understand the challenges faced by those on the frontlines, this episode offers valuable insights and a sobering look at what needs to change.
