We've been hearing all sorts of platitudes about our wonderful front-line health care professionals.
The three hundred thousand a year MDs.
The hundred thousand a year RNs.
And the PSWs who have to stitch three part-time gigs together to make thirty-five thousand a year.
What's wrong with this picture?
It's the PSWs who are charged with the most intimate level of care of our elderly. They're the ones who do the tube-feeding and change the adult diapers. They're the one's who bathe dear old granddad and wipe his drool and wipe his ass.
If there's a contagious disease to be caught, it's the PSWs who are gonna catch it first.
For fifteen bucks an hour.
