Scotti Petersen had to leave nursing after developing severe PTSD from the COVID-19 pandemic and is urging for better mental health care for medical workers.
Nurses and mental health professionals could get a break from the fees they pay the state to maintain their licenses under two bills that won final approval in the Colorado House on Wednesday.
Tufts Medical Center is set to close its 128-year-old, 41-bed pediatric ward by July, and Tufts nurses represented by the Massachusetts Nurses Association (MNA), the largest nurses' union in the state, are not happy about it.
The union organized a rally outside Tufts Children's Hospital Tuesday afternoon to voice their discontent with the move by Tufts leadership.
