She would’ve been so interesting on this topic!
Candace Cameron Bure wasn’t on the panel the day hosts from The View made their controversial comments about nurses, but now we at least know how Candace would’ve handled it had she been there!

Speaking out at a pre-Emmys party, Candace said of the nurse controversy, and whether she dodged a bullet by missing it:
“I did dodge a bullet although I wish I were there because I would have had some other words to say, which were how much I appreciate nurses. We couldn’t do what they do. Doctors couldn’t do what they do without the nurses. I’m so appreciative and grateful of nurses. I kind of let [the ladies] sort it out because you don’t want to come in and go ‘Oh, I’m going to be the hero and the good person over all of this’ because I think it was an unfortunate mistake. They were trying to make a joke that didn’t quite go over well in the talent department and it wasn’t to say that nurses aren’t talented.”
There is one thing that she liked, though — bringing nurses on to make amends after the controversy hit! Candace said:
“I’m glad they brought all of the nurses back on and they gave an apology to them and they celebrated them and that’s exactly what they should have done. I wish I were there and I could of genuinely apologized to them and told them how much I appreciate them because I truly mean it. I’ve been with so many nurses and I understand what they go through,” she explained. “I’ve said sometimes a nurse is the only ray of sunshine that you see in a day when you’re at a hospital.”
