THREE-RIVERS – a Few weeks after their release, the working conditions of nurses of the intensive care unit of the hospital of Trois-Rivières are always also critical.

According to TVA News, has been able to learn, the department is running at full capacity and there are too many open beds for the resources available. It will force the majority of workers perform shift work 12 hours at the end of the week.

As if this was not enough, patients of the hospital of Sorel, if heavy, is now transferred here rather than Montreal. Once again, this is a load of extra work.

The union (FIQ) is closely monitoring the situation and has not ruled out the possibility of conducting other means of pressure if ever the situation continues to escalate and compromise the safety of users and workers.
