Had a dinner party last week with 6 highly trained physicians in their field, who have only landed in TV a year ago or less. Four are leaving TV for better salaries within 2-4 months. The only way you can ensure quality professionals is offering a salary worthy of moving. Building communities for professionals that some pay in hospital facilities doesn’t equal Buccee’s is laughable.

Medical professionals leave TV not because of housing, but the lack of pay, and the mundane grind of geriatric patients day in and day out.

Even those who choose Geriatric as a profession rarely stay more than a year or two. Geriatric can be the same as working in a children’s burn unit. Good days are few and far between.
