Mcfd gets away with murder, they are above the law and above court orders, they don't follow any rules and regulations they literally just do whatever want and get away with it, no matter who they hurt, they are the abusers, my poor 4 year old son was hospitalized with rectal hemorrhaging for over a week, he almost died. He was in 6 different places being seriously beaten and abused and starved. Mcfd must be removed in order to protect our children. The abuse my son and I have endured over the past 15 months because of mcfd is horrific and unbelievable. They do not work with me only literally have worked against me. Telling me to be silent and stop reporting the abuse happening or he'll never come home they say. Cut off our court ordered visitations whenever they want, they cause instability and insecurities. They hurt families and tear them apart. They take innocent children's families away from them forever just because they choose not to like you. Mcfd is literally professional bullies . They cause more damage then good. End the violence remove foster care.
MCFD and Metis family services robbed my child's childhood from him. The system MUST CHANGE! aThere are so many situations where the wrong children are taken or for too long and the wrong children are left in terribly abusive and unsafe places.
The issues Dr. Stockton is fighting against are the reasons why I stopped working at Eagle ridge ED. The conditions for patients and staff caused a lot of moral distress. It is impossible to safely care for the patients when there is no support for the people working understaffed and overwhelmed by growing patient volumes and acuity. It is not the fault of the staff who are simply trying their hardest to do their best by the patients! FHA needs to listen to their staff and support them if they want to have safer patient care.
I have been an ED RN for 12 years. I love the ED. I love being able to do good safe work and make a patients worst day better. That’s not possible right now. We need upstream fixes. Not bandaids! It’s more staff not more money ! Make essential workers schooling free ( Doctors, nurses, care aids, allied health etc etc ) do that for 10 years it’s cheaper than the OT we are spending !!!
FH does not provide safe space to staff to bring forward their concerns especially RCH. It is the most toxic workplace. The senior leadership ignores genuine issues and reprimands those who speak up. I really hope Dr. Stockton wins and show them their places. The frontline staff cannot be let out down by management.
I left the Emergency Department in 2017, but this issue has been ongoing since I began working there in 2011—and it has only worsened over time. The experience of being consistently understaffed while caring for high-acuity patients left me with significant PTSD.
This situation must change. Our healthcare system is at risk of collapse if we continue down this path. We owe it to our staff, our patients, and their families to do better.
We love this work deeply, but continuing under these conditions—with constant moral distress—is unsustainable.
