85% of nurses surveyed reported staffing-related disruptions to patient care. 58% of executives rated their organization’s leadership as effective. Only 28% of frontline workers agreed. These findings come from AMN Healthcare’s 2026 Workforce Outlook Survey, released September 15. siubfilm.com

What does this mean, people over profits? The Financial Times reported Monday on rising healthcare costs. A Pennsylvania patient described paying under $100 for a cancerous tumor removal in 2022, then nearly $1,000 for removal this year. A 900% increase in CoC. Let’s revisit our standards. #fpsky

The patient they lost. The family they comforted. The moments they’re still replaying on the drive home. Healthcare workers deserve time to process, a safe place to speak, and support they can access without fear. “Suck it up” should never be the answer. 💛 siubfilm.com #physiciansky #nursesky

We ask healthcare professionals to bring compassion to every encounter. But, then we pile on more paperwork, longer hours, patient quotas, and staff shortages. It’s time to give healthcare professionals the support they need to make time for caring possible. 💛 siubfilm.com #CaringForCaregivers

No one should have to suffer in silence simply because the culture says, “Suck it up.” It’s time we stop confusing endurance with wellness and start creating healthcare systems that care for the people who work there. Change begins when we’re willing to look, listen & ACT! siubfilm.com

The strongest people aren’t the ones who suffer in silence. They’re the ones who recognize that their health matters too. Self-care isn’t the opposite of caring for others. It is where caring begins. Join the movement. Host a screening. siubfilm.com 💛

Empathy is not weakness. It's a superpower. Compassion is not failure. The problem is a system that demands emotional suppression while offering little support for the weight people carry. This is what is called moral injury. That’s why “Suck It Up Buttercup” exists. 💙 siubfilm.com

You can’t call it compassion while breaking the people who provide it. You can’t keep staying silent when the healers are burning out. And you can’t ask people to survive what was never sustainable. Let’s change these dangerous conditions before more people lose their lives. siubfilm.com #fpsky

May is #MentalHealthMonth. Time to recognize bunout isn’t a staffing problem. It’s a warning siren. Healthcare can’t keep running on caffeine, guilt, and sacrifice. When survival becomes the healthcare culture, everyone loses. Patients, caregivers, staffers, and clinicians. #fpsky #nursesky

#Burnout isn’t limited to physicians & nurses. It’s the caregiver trying to hold everything together at home. The front-line staff member being asked to do the work of 3 people. Healthcare burnout touches every layer of the system. When everyone is overwhelmed, exhausted, & depleted…care suffers.

This is not a “Suck it up” problem. Because, the data tells a very different story: • 62–65% of nurses report high levels of burnout & stress • 74% feel emotionally drained #Burnout is directly tied to higher rates of medical errors, infections, & staff turnover. Help us fix this. siubfilm.com
