That is the question we have all asked at one time or another. Virginie Beffort, Nurse Clinician since 2015 in various settings, notably at the Poison Control Centre and Emergency Room at the H\u00f4tel-Dieu de L\u00e9vis, found the right words to answer this question:\u00a0<strong> \u201cThere is this whole therapeutic relationship where you have to be gentle, where you have to be patient, and at the same time, there is this urgency to act, to have the scientific knowledge to identify problems and collaborate with other professionals. It is this dichotomy that gives the profession its meaning.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Despite her enthusiasm for healthcare, she remains keenly aware of the current situation in the network and points out the many challenges that make the work more demanding: mental overload, MOT, high number of patients, etc. In 2023, these difficulties prompted her to make a heartfelt plea to her managers and on social media. The message was very clear: <strong>\u201cWe can\u2019t take it anymore.\u201d <\/strong>\u00a0This was the catalyst for her commitment to bringing about change.<\/p>\n<p>Following this initiative, she attended a Committee on Care, implemented for the Emergency Room at the H\u00f4tel-Dieu de L\u00e9vis, to find solutions for the overload. An enriching and enlightening experience. <strong>\u201cIt\u2019s <\/strong><strong>difficult to change how things are done in this large machine that is the health network, but I think it\u2019s the little changes that will make a big difference. The Committee on Care helped us by listening to our concerns, balancing overtime between units, adding stretchers at the start of shifts, and providing increased supervision for younger teams.\u201d<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_message css=&#8221;&#8221;]The Committee on Care is a place stipulated in the collective agreement where employees and managers can discuss organization of work and workload problems at the local level. It aims to propose concrete solutions to remedy work overload.[\/vc_message][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Despite all these advances and the renewed hope they bring, Virginie Beffort emphasizes the importance of structural changes: <strong>\u201cThere\u2019s still a lot of work to do. I think that introducing ratios would allow us to return to the very essence of our profession.<\/strong><strong> To find the perfect balance between the therapeutic relationship and the scientific side, to take the time and at the same time be able to act in an emergency.\u201d <\/strong>It\u2019s this balance that would allow us to stop asking ourselves the question and simply say\u2026 we are staying.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;11798&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why do we stay in the public network?
