I quit my first LTC job because in the 8 months I was there they walked out 3 DON's and 2 administrators. For what, I have no idea, but I got the heck out of dodge. If the facility is that unstable, then I don't want any part of it. After working there, when I interviewed for my next job, I did more the interviewing that the DON. I asked how long she had been there, how long the administrator had been there, how long the company that owns them has owned them and so on. What the rational for the escorting people is, I don't know, but how freaky is that? LTC has way to many other issues to address and coorporate is more concerned about this. Unless is stealing, rude, unprofessional, lazy, etc. then I don't understand. The DON's and Administrators at the old facility didn't do anything wrong that I ever heard of and of course everything is hush, hush. Scary.

I understand that this is practical to do when someone is in an administration setting because they may have access to more confidential files but to nurses? This just seems like overkill. I have heard of this happening to nurses and I believe it is just a tact to humiliate and take on some sort of revenge.

The last DON who was fired in my CAH was not escorted out and wiped his computer of hundreds of necessary documents.

We support electronic records. Even if things are really locked down there's a way for the determined to cause damage. Including nurses.
