In Canada, most direct patient care is done by practical nurses and health care assistants. They make a LOT less than 80K (in the neighbourhood of CAD 40-60K) and suffer all the hardships. The burnout rates appear to be high and those who continue to work are covering for missing workers (including both those who are burnt out and those who refused vaccination), working long hours, etc. It's a complete mess.
