In your experience, how is the staffing crisis affecting your patients and fellow caregivers? Can you share a story or example that illustrates it best? (Please respect HIPAA rules when sharing specifics).
What is the most important thing lawmakers need to know about staffing in healthcare, and what needs to change?
📷 PHOTO: Do you have a picture of yourself you could share along with your staffing experience so people can put a face to a name if we share your story? (This is totally optional, it just helps when we're sharing these stories.)

🎞️ VIDEO: Sometimes people can't really hear us unless they see a real person talking on video. Even speaking into the camera for just 30 seconds or a minute can tell your story to people who need to hear it. To submit a video, you can click below to open the camera on your phone, or click to share a video you've already recorded. Think about answering this question: If you could say one thing to your community, your patients, your employer, or lawmakers about what it's been like to keep working through a staffing crisis, what would that be?
