@WHEC_SPensgen @NWSBUFFALO My son and his girlfriend live in the building right there. Said it sounded like a train.

I've watched this about 20 times, & I'm thinking this is a funnel/waterspout over Canandaigua Lake during Tornado-warned storm. @NWSBUFFALO

@vnachi77 @CatherinVaritek I was not trying to turn this into anything to do with my pay. Just explaining the reason for the crisis in healthcare. Those of us still working in healthcare truly care. Before you slam someone, I suggest you take a walk in their shoes so you can get the facts straight.

@ljmarkwick @CatherinVaritek Way to turn Catherine’s father’s illness and lack of attention by hospital staff into a complaint about your pay.
Providers are so far removed from the reality of their patients, that it’s like you live on a different planet.

@CatherinVaritek Get Washington to fix Medicare reimbursement so we can earn a decent living and cover our expenses. Get state legislators putting pressure on insurers to improve reimbursement. I have had patients get covid tests denied as ‘not covered under their plan’! It’s out of control!

Thank you for all you do.
I feel for you all. The waiting rooms are full for hours, people lined up in hallways. There is no way you nurses can keep up.
What do you think needs to be done so that patients get the care they need in an appropriate time?
I wish I could help🤍😔

@CatherinVaritek Unfortunately yes, it is everywhere. I am an NP. We are forced to work with less resources (reimbursement is down, overhead is grossly inflated) so we do the best we can. We don’t have the ability to raise our rates, insurance tells us what we will be paid, IF we get paid at all.

@CatherinVaritek So sorry to hear he is ill, sending prayers!

“All orgs…should enable nurses to practice to the full extent of their education & training by removing barriers that prevent them from more fully addressing social needs & social determinants of health & improving healthcare access,quality & value” @theNAMedicine #PassTheNPMA

The NP Modernization Act #A1535 #S3056 is not a “scope of practice” bill. It allows NPs to practice at the top of their licenses. In fact the Exec Orders by @GovKathyHochul & in effect now, does the same thing. The bills don’t allow more or less than what NPs are educated to do.

#NursePractitioners have been on the NY frontlines since the beginning of the pandemic. It is time to permanently increase access to safe & hi-quality NP-Partnered care. @GovKathyHochuls budget proposal would allow this as would #S3056 @NYSenatorRivera & @DickGottfried #A1535
