To the people who work at hospitals and pharmacies:  I hope the job you have is taking care of your needs like housing, school, food........you know, everything a person needs to survive and flourish.

May I ask one thing of you all kind strangers?  Would you put integrity ahead of security (job).  Please put patients well being forefront while in your care.  You.  Every single one of you can  make or break  a hospital or any other service oriented business.  Being the first to report wrongdoing is very scary, I know.  The fear of not having a job and/or success that you've striven your whole life to achieve.....none of it's worth it if you've had to compromise your principals or be a liar to protect your company.  Peacehealth did that to me a while back.  Nurses who'd known I'd been violated couldn't look me in the eye.  I called one of those women.  She panicked and said "I'm not supposed to talk to you".  Me: I just wanted to thank you for your compassion and care.   Silence.
