New York community health nurses deserve parking permits because it's often difficult to find parking, we have to walk several blocks with our heavy nursing bag, which contains equipment necessary to perform care to the patient. We are saving lives, keeping patients at home rather than being in the hospital or nursing home through the care we give such as monitoring blood pressure /blood sugar, proving wound care, medication management and much more. During rain storms, snow storms, we are visiting our patients providing us with a permit will give us the opportunity to park closer to the patients home , hence increasing the nurses safety and helping the city save money but reducing unplanned hospitalization which is usually reimbursed by the state health insurance program. Community health nurses are derserving of this parking permit.

Community health nurses are deserving of this parking permit because we have to park blocks away from the patients home and by the time we get in the home and take vital signs, do wound care, check the blood sugar level, teach the patient how to manage their illness, prepare the insulin, prepare the patient weekly medications, teaching teach care, monitoring the patient on the ventilator, it's time to run to go put money in the meter and by the time we get to our car the  meter expired and we get a ticket. We community health nurses are saving lives, preventing unplanned hospitalization so which cost money to the city because vow the patients insurances. We visit our patients during hurricanes and snow storms , good weather , bad weather we are there because we care and the patient needs us just as they need the nurse in the hospital we are needed in the privacy of their home. Support and protect us and grant us the parking permit. Cheryl
