December 11, 2022 MSNCB President’s Message - December 2022 Season’s Greetings and Happy Holidays Everyone!

I was recently asked for my thoughts on some of the big issues currently happening in health care settings. Perhaps one of the most frequently asked questions is “what can we do about staffing?”. I honestly wish I had a good answer for this, and yet I do not.
