SUMMARY - Healthcare Wages & Compensation

A nurse reviews her paycheque, calculating whether overtime pay will cover her mortgage payment this month. She chose nursing to help people, but the financial reality shapes every aspect of her life. A personal support worker earns minimum wage or near it, providing intimate care to vulnerable people, her economic precarity at odds with the importance of her work. A physician earns well but argues that compensation doesn't reflect years of training, massive student debt, and intense responsibility.
