. Maureen Walsh is under fire after claiming nurses in small, rural hospitals “probably play cards for a considerable amount of the day.”
Backlash quickly spread across the country after the Washington State Nurses Association railed against Walsh in a scathing blog post published Thursday. “I’m a nurse at a nursing home where at times I’ve had over 40 residents,” one petition supporter wrote. “I need Senator Walsh to come show me what I’m doing wrong so that I can get a break and possibly play cards with the rest of the nurses. Who will watch my residents while I’m gone?”
