Do you feel there is a way to stop them? 🤔

I feel better background checks MAY help. It seems ALOT of agencies are MAYBE "skipping" them & filling spots in hospitals/doctors offices. 😱

The most concerning one for me was her deception was NOT "discovered" until she was pulled over for a TRAFFIC VIOLATION!!! 😱

Apparently these ladies & gentlemen (male nurses) made a killing in 2020 when COVID arrived & kept up the DECEPTION. 😤

Geez, I would have thought these AGENCIES WHO ARE HIRING THEM would have "safeguards" in place = hospitals & doctors are "trusting" whomever they send to them to fill a SHORTAGE.

Anyway, lol - HOPE I DONOT/DIDNOT have one taking care of me. Yikes!!!

Nicole!
