The cry of the heart of a young nurse in Sherbrooke has had a viral effect to such a point that the prime minister has invited the Federation interprofessionnelle de la santé du Québec (FIQ) to propose solutions.

The declaration of Philippe Couillard occurs while the Federation of nurses launches a series of advertisements to denounce their working conditions.

In this offensive on the social networks, including TVA News has obtained a copy, the FIQ denounced in comic the exhaustion of its members in the hospitals.

“When I have your mother, when I have your child in my care, I need a number of hours of rest, insists Nancy Bédard, of the Federation interprofessional of the health. And additional time, hundreds of hours, as it is currently happening in the network, this is unacceptable, and it has become a management that is regular. Then, it is enough. The care professionals are denouncing. And this is what it shows with these two ads.”

These pubs are in addition to the sit-in in hospitals and at the cry of the heart of the young nurse, that became viral on the social networks.

“When I saw the size it took… I said to myself: oops! Is it that I made a mistake?”, asks the nurse Émilie Ricard, on the origin of the message that is making a lot of noise.

A “concerted action”, said the minister Barrette

“It is sad to read a page like this, admits the minister of Health and social Services, Gaétan Barrette. The question of the sit-in, there is no doubt that, for me, even if the FIQ is said to the contrary, it is a concerted action.”

“This is not a strategy. Our only strategy is to expose now, which is unacceptable,” said Ms. Bédard.

“The position of Ms. Bédard today is such that, if we were to give effect to its claims… It is not there, the staff!”, supports the minister Barrette.

“For full-time positions, it’s been two years that you request. The planning of workforce, the reforms have prevented administratively the capacity of the institutions to do that,” replica Ms. Bédard.

What meets the minister: “We can’t hear constantly on one thing, and two weeks after, to be on the public square and say that this is not correct.”

“It is not I who do not hold a word,” replied Mrs. Bédard. It has been signed. And it is them that don’t give us the means to make them.”

“I’ve invested $ 65 million to hire 1,300 people for different job classes,” explains Dr. Barrette.

For his part, the prime minister Couillard holds out a hand to the nurses. “I would like it to tell me to me, to us, that it proposes that there will be more, because we have signed with it the agreement, in which we committed together to go further in the nursing positions. And, once again, this is not a budgetary question. You have the means to do so.”

Mr. Couillard added that he knows that people of the health network are pushed to the limit and it is very grateful.
