“Strained”? I think the word for what is happening right now is “dangerous”. Or, perhaps, “negligent.”
Perhaps that seems an appropriate word when you aren’t hands on with covid patients.

This is where death penalty is needed. Life of crime? How much money has been spent on him? Nuts!!
The violence continues,if we as healthcare workers don’t speak up louder nothing can change! Stophealthcareviolence.org
“I shudder to think in your career of crime how much money the country has spent on you, having to get you arrested, having to get you prosecuted. It probably runs into six figures,” the judge said. Imagine if they had spent a fraction of that money on addressing the social and probable mental health issues that led to him being on the streets in the first place. Glad the judge supported the hospital staff, but let's see if he gets the treatment he needs in the next 18 months.
The tide seems to be turning. At least he got prosecuted. He, like so many antisocial and potentially violent patients, looks mentally unstable. Now, other than incarceration, what form of treatment or therapy has he been mandated by the court, to undergo in order to “hopefully” prevent a recurrence?
He got 18 months?!?!? Guess nurses lives don’t matter!
