Healthcare is seemingly at a crossroads. Hospital admissions are increasing, while labor, pharmaceutical, and supply costs continue to rise. This challenge is further complicated by workforce shortages and inflation; inadequate reimbursements from government and private payers often do not cover the total cost of hospital-based care. In fact, many patients have no means to afford acute hospital care today. The Treasure Coast is not immune to these headwinds. My comments and some facts around these particular headwinds within Indian River County: https://lnkd.in/ere-s6Ge

Always Innovating to Reduce Violence in Healthcare & Schools | Non profit Founder | Author of “Collateral Damage” | Recovering ICU Nurse | Security is not the absence of threat, but presence of connection.
Let's get some actionable work done that does not include passing legislation that research has proven to provide greater gaps in workforce retention and critical infrastructure support for healthcare. For instance, enhancing penalties for workplace violence incidents. It is well known that this is ineffective and severely gate kept by facility policy and Texas is an "At will" to work state. I hope they spend the time advocating and listening to experts in the field that have looked outside current ideas and legislation using more forward thinking approaches that are evidence based. We need you to be an educated, and advocates for the voices of Texas Healthcare Workers. Because one day, you will all be patients too. Texas is 51st in the nation for mental health spending. Why?
Today marks the start of the 89th Texas legislative session, and THA is eager to fight for patients, hospitals and the ability to continue providing dedicated care to the people of Texas. Our lobby team, led by seasoned hospital advocate Carrie Kroll, met with membership this morning to kick off session and collaborate on the laws and policies that help patients and hospitals. Over the next 140 days, lawmakers will determine the future of health care in Texas – and THA is honored to be on the front line, representing both our hospitals and the communities they serve.
