encumbers that problem. Little known but lethal to careers of excellent nurses with the greatest education and experience.

I am one of them, having been fired 3 times, just 2 weeks before healthcare benefits would have commenced. I have been extremely successful, having climbed the career ladder. now I am humiliated by state of the art firing procedures that treat employees who are terminated like criminals. Few want to expose what happened to them, or their hurt/anguish over the premature end to a satisfying career!
