Healthcare Workers, Stigma, and the Risk of Overdose

This LinkedIn post is close to my nurse’s heart.

I just commented on another post, with other nurses, about the ongoing fallout for nurses of the COVID pandemic, opioid (+) crisis, and healthcare economics trends.

I wrote about our approaches becoming more reactive rather than proactive due to the unpredictable (out of our control) circumstances in which we find ourselves.

“Although the study doesn’t dive into the reasons behind these fatalities, Olfson said stress may be a significant issue.
“Many times health care workers are in positions where, despite their efforts, they have very little ability to control the outcome,” Olfson said.

THANK YOU, William Stauffer.
