In this episode of Articles On-The-Go, Hank Balch invites us to pause and consider the impact of technology on the value of Sterile Processing Technicians: "Department leaders cannot afford to simply open the floodgates of technology into their departments without judicious consideration of the men and women behind the machines. We owe it to our people to tap the technological brakes every now and then to consider how to best improve our industry while not losing our humanity at the same time..." #sterileprocessing #wefightdirty

An intensive care specialist says more spots in MIQ for health workers is a start, but more needs to be done. The Government says it will now guarantee 300 spots a month in managed isolation for people in the health and disability sectors. Those groups of workers, who are urgently needed in this country, currently have to compete for scarce MIQ spaces with other travellers. Australian and New Zealand Intensive Care Society spokesperson Andrew Stapleton told Morning Report it's a step, but more needs to be done. "We've been arguing that we need a centralised process that is looking across the whole of the barriers to getting ICU nurses particularly and specialists into the country. "That requires one agency to take control of this issue to advertise interview, to sort out visas, to get nurses through MIQ." Stapleton said DHBs now have approval to recruit new nurses, but that means they will all be competing with each other to get new nurses on board. He said from his point of view, what he cares about is preventable deaths and working on increasing ICU capacity is just as important as vaccination. "We must vaccinate until the models are showing us that the system can cope with what happens when we open up. "There's two parts of that, there's the prevention part, that's the vaccination, and then there's the capacity part. I would like to see a lot more emphasis, and money frankly, spent on the capacity part, so that we can open up earlier."

On this episode, we begin a brand-new series doing case studies on retirees from specific backgrounds. After nearly twenty years of retirement planning experience helping thousands of people retire, we have noticed patterns regarding the way retirement affects someone based on the characteristics of their job, vacation or background. In this podcast, we do a case study on a blue-collar worker named Jim. Blue-collar workers' viewpoint on work, leisure and money makes them prime candidates to struggle with retirement if done incorrectly.

The days are quickly ticking down to next Monday's deadline when most Oregon and Washington teachers, health care workers and public employees need to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Elected officials especially in more conservative swaths of the Pacific Northwest remain fearful of a "mass exodus" of firefighters and health care professionals.

The working class of the world has been becoming more and more aggravated and aware of their condition as workers. They are tired of low wages, high bills, no affordable or safe housing, no healthcare, poor education and abysmal social services. They have been calling for strikes, unionizing, better pay, and better working conditions. But what does this all mean? How can trade unions and Economism, the theories that folks like Richard Wolff perpetuate, truly aid the working class? Can they? And if so, what does that look like? In this discussion I try to go over some of these questions and answer them myself. I hope you enjoy!

Good Morning, Colorado, you're listening to the Daily Sun-Up with the Colorado Sun. It's Tuesday October 5th,   Today - State health officials are proposing changes to the recent COVID-19 vaccine mandate for health care workers.   But before we begin, let's go back in time with some Colorado history adapted from historian Derek R Everett's book “Colorado Day by Day”:   Today, we take you back to October 5th, 1879 when a bugle call pierced the sky along Milk Creek in today's Rio Blanco County. It was a welcome signal to a party of besieged soldiers that help had arrived. The conflict, which was between the White River Agency and the Utes. eventually led to Ute removal from most of western Colorado.    Now, our feature story.   Colorado health officials are proposing changes to the recent mandate that requires all health care workers to be vaccinated against the coronavirus. Reporter John Ingold spoke with health care administrators about the proposed adjustment to the vaccine mandate.   CLIP   To read John's story use the link in our show notes.   And Before we go, here are a few stories that you should know about today:   Colorado voters in November could reduce property tax rates for apartment complexes and lodging properties. Supporters of Proposition 120 argue the property tax reduction could reduce rents and encourage investment in multi-family housing, which could ease the state's housing shortage. Opponents, however, fear the reduced tax revenue could hurt local governments, schools and fire departments that depend on property taxes.    Xcel Energy is studying new power-generation technologies like molten salt, biomass and hydrogen to replace coal-burning at the company's soon-to-close power plant in Hayden. Coal-fired power plants are shuttering across the state as utilities cut greenhouse gas emissions and the proposed technology at Xcel plant in Hayden could be a model for communities transitioning from coal-dependent jobs.   Another measure on the November ballot asks Colorado voters to adjust how the state spends money from the federal government and other outside sources. Supporters say Amendment 78 would provide better transparency for state spending while opponents argue the measure is a partisan ploy to slow spending by a Democratic administration.    For more information on all of these stories, visit our website, www.coloradosun.com. And don't forget to tune in again tomorrow.   The Colorado Sun is non-partisan and completely independent. We're always dedicated to telling the in-depth stories we need today more than ever.

Good Morning, Colorado, you're listening to the Daily Sun-Up with the Colorado Sun. It's Monday October 4th,    Today - Countrywide many industries have been faced with worker shortages throughout the pandemic. Now, as federal unemployment benefits fade, Colorado employers are hoping to see an uptick in applicants for open roles.    Before we begin, let's go back in time with some Colorado history adapted from historian Derek R Everett's book “Colorado Day by Day”:   Today we're going back to October 4th, 1982 when an estimated 200,000 people - roughly 40% of Denver's population at the time - showed up along sixteenth street at lunchtime. They were there to celebrate the transformation of the former commercial hub - and the dedication of the Sixteenth Street Mall. The Sixteenth Street Mall offered the hope of real urban renewal.    Now, our feature story.    Colorado's employers are locked in a battle for workers, with the service industry struggling to hire the same workers eyed by giants like Amazon, which needs one thousand more employees at its two-point-four million square-foot warehouse in Thornton and another twenty-two hundred workers at its Colorado Springs' facility. As federal unemployment benefits fade, employers across the state are hoping to see more applicants.    And Before we go, here are a few stories that you should know about today:   The legal wrangling over Colorado's new district-tweaking congressional map has begun. After months of contentious debate, the Colorado Independent Congressional Redistricting Commission has sent its new congressional map to the Colorado Supreme Court, where a host of political candidates, political parties and advocacy groups will challenge the proposed redistricting.    San Juan County in southwest Colorado boasts an impressive ninety-nine point nine percent vaccination rate, yet the one-town county is struggling with the spread of COVID-19 and the highly contagious delta variant. The recent death of a resident -- and the hospitalization of others -- has caused the county to backtrack with new regulations that limit indoor events and require masks indoors.     When search and rescue teams must delay recovery of a fallen adventurer, sometimes friends step-in. In the last year, when two skiers, a hiker and a kayaker did not returned home from the mountains, their friends have conducted ad hoc, and often complicated, recovery efforts. Colorado's search and rescue teams rarely condone civilian rescues or recovery missions, but sometimes the lost or fallen's friends are uniquely skilled and qualified to step up when others are unable.   For more information on all of these stories, visit our website, www.coloradosun.com. Now, a quick message from our editor. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
