This! I’m a (fully vaccinated) very senior healthcare worker and I’m looking at leaving the profession because it has been so tough over the last few months. My husband is also in the health service (a consultant) and we’re at absolute breaking point. Nobody signed up for this nor do wages compensate.Another idiot that’s posting about the nurse that had to leave because she wouldn’t get the vaccine. Wonder what she would think if one of her own family was sick and an unvaccinated nurse was looking after them?
Anyway, there is a minuscule percentage of vaccine hesitate health care workers in the HSE. In my opinion, the unvaccinated should be excluded from the workforce similar to other countries. As vaccinated workers (with our own health problems and families to go home to), we don’t want to work with those with a blatant disregard for vaccines. As a manager, I’d happily take the hit and lead a department without the unvaccinated; instead working with people on the same page as me re public health guidelines, protecting our patients and instilling clinical based science onto our patients. The unvaccinated are an embarrassment to our profession and a further embarrassment to those dying in ICUs countrywide.
