Loading ...One of my grandmother’s born in UK a fellow Brit during the 20s and on but don’t know how many years but during WW11 she also got to know a lot of high profile figures during those time frame including movie stars. That was before the gov made the CIA. If I wanted to know about anything I could ask her depending on what it was. She knew Ron on a acquaintance basis. I liked him but he didn’t help on the borders in Calif and I wasn’t much in politics then but should of asked her if there was any link in cutting funds to hospitals with any cutbacks especially in Medicare for seniors. I was working 40 hr weeks that was turning into 70 hr weeks because they stopped bringing in registry nurses ” on call” so couldn’t get relief to go home and had young kids and thought about working registry for awhile because there was no such thing as part time. Part time wound up full time and full-time was up in the air after the first 40. Not a good place to be when expecting with no relief and can’t go home either. I was already beginning to notice that when the economy was better registry’s were busy but something going on they weren’t. Then less a couple years later in the 80s starting hearing insurance trouble, no increases to Medicare and us younger heard from parents problems with preexisting denials including for children so people were afraid the chance jobs or had to drop out to get medical for themselves or kids then we got news they were cutting coverage for pain meds for seniors on Medicare and learned funding for it was slowing. We ordered things like codeine for patients needing it before it went in effect but someone intervened which was a relief. Also cutting of decreasing registry help also started the recruiting of foreign nurses which then started nursing factory’s with shortcuts in training in at least one of the country’s the Philippines.
