While many healthcare workers have spoken out about the firsthand struggles of fighting coronavirus, some in Dane County [Wisconsin] are demanding solutions through a potential new program.
Organized by SEIU Healthcare Wisconsin, nurses presented their proposal Thursday night to county board supervisors in the Health and Human Needs (HHN) committee.
The group is calling it the "Healthcare Workforce Trauma Recovery and Training Program," aimed at "stabilizing" the industry, and hopes to see no-cost counseling, continuing education, support groups and efforts to recruit and retain professionals.
