SUMMARY - Nursing Workforce

In a busy emergency department in Toronto, a registered nurse named Elena reviews the staffing schedule for the upcoming shift. With two positions unfilled due to recent resignations, she anticipates a twelve-hour shift that will likely require her to manage a patient load exceeding standard safety guidelines. Her primary concern is not merely personal fatigue, but the potential compromise in patient monitoring and the ethical weight of providing care under conditions she deems unsafe.
