Healthcare employers are taking advantage of full-time Nurses.  They are working Nurses 16-24 hours consecutive and making them get into their vehicles and drive home, then come into work the next day.   They are saving a bundle on not hiring another body and paying these nurses overtime.   Problem is ....do you want a nurse to work on you in surgery, dialysis, administering an IV when they have worked 22 hours straight.  Nurses are also getting DUI (driving while impaired) due to they are falling asleep at the wheel.   Nurses licenses are on the line if they make a mistake.   Enough is enough!!!!   Make a legal work day 16 hours per day.  If a person wants to work more that 16 hours then have them sign a form stating their employer is not holding a gun to their heads.
