The Commission for Nurse Reimbursement continues to move forward and increase awareness of the need for modernization of nurse reimbursement. It’s time everyone understand why nurses don’t stay at the bedside. We don’t have a nursing shortage, we have a shortage of nurses who want to work in a cost minimization environment. It’s time for change! #nursesonlinkedin #healthcareonlinkedin #advocacy #nursing
