    well my wife say that because they are color coded as to what color they have to wear that she would have to have martian green antenas and instead ofgreasy finger prints it would be ufo LOL On serouis side she said that they have already tried this once before and the board of nursring turned it down due to the shortage of nurses they tried a 16 hr limit but because of not enough staff to cover patients it was never done

    I would have to think corporations who own hospitals are going to fight this. Its way cheaper to have 10 people to do the work that 15 should be doing. No matter what the field ( medical/trucking/manufacturing/you name it ) money is the bottom line and last word for the reasoning and the way things are 99% of the time.

    N they don't pay crap for anyone LPN, CNA or less tier jobs. Lots of them live on those extra hours and are already barely above poverty.
