Need some advice....

Recently started working at rehab/healthcare as treatment nurse.Received 1/2 day of orient. on treatment cart, from then on I was on my own. Never received facility orientation. I like my job however, I have been getting frustrated lately. The facility is a year old (this month) and do not have any effective programs/systems in place. Now, corporate wants all of their programs/systems to be revamped, and running smoothly within 1 week. I have only been there 4 wks and it feels like 4 yrs. Have been working OT since my 2nd day d/t workload. Staffing says they can't orientate because no one will do treatments. Don't like moving from job to job, but what should I do? I was assigned a "special project", a ton of paperwork, which is do on Monday. When given the assignment I said that I would not have everything done by Monday. Not to mention that this is an addition to my day-to-day assignment. The other nurses have been coming in early 2AM-3AM and leaving late 7PM-8PM (regular ly scheduled hours are 8a-5p). ANY ADVICE???? I could go on and on....

That sounds a lot like the job I just left after 7 weeks. Good luck!
