Inquiry into the local healthcare staffing situation.

The other week at the one (Thai) restaurant where I work now, two (younger) (white) women in scrubs were in for lunch, so I chit-chatted with them a bit, and it turns out that they were on lunchbreak from the nearby major hospital system.

And, I asked them if they were still having short-staffing with CNAs, and I mentioned how several years ago someone from there told me that it was so bad, that they were having to substitute in LPNs for CNA work.

And, they didn't know.

"We do more clinical stuff," the one was like, "So we really don't see that."
