I have been working at my hospital on the med/surg floor for eight months now. I had a patient with fussy family a few days ago and I expected that they would file a complaint because nothing we did was good enough. I went in to pickup my paycheck today and my team leader stopped me and asked me about that particular patient. Sure enough, they had filed a complaint against all the nurses who took care of the patient, not just me. My manager said that a nurse who fits my description was reported for "doing nothing but playing solitiare" by this family. I emphatically assured my team leader that not only did I not play solitaire that day, I have actually never played solitaire on any of the computers in the hospital. After I told her I wasn't guilty, she said for me not to play solitaire anymore. So we spent a couple of minutes going round and round and I kept telling her that I do not play games while on the clock. She told me a couple of times that "the folks downstairs didn't take very well to that complaint." I asked her several times what that was supposed to mean and she never would tell me, she just kept repeating the statement over and over. She never did believe me that I do not play games on the clock. She told me that she told the administrators that no one else on the floor fits my description so it had to be me. She didn't take up for me at all. I work very hard, as do most nurses on our floor. I don't know what to do. They have fired people for small reasons before and now I am afraid they will be watching over my shoulder picking me apart. I don't know what to do. As nurses, please give me your opinion. I feel like this is a very big deal that she didn't even attempt to take up for me and really slammed me to the administrators. Is it time to get a new job? And if so, do I resign immediately or give a notice? Or do I try to talk to her again???
