I am more seeking info about anyone who has been accused of creating a hostile work environment. After an RN has actually created a whistlblowing situation; in which there was truth, in which HR has made vast efforts to correct...has anyone been suspended or disciplined for some other small complaint not associated with patient care? How does one go about politicaly when one accusation of hostility is reported? No cuss words said, just a sentence with voice mildly raised expressing a truth about unsafe and daily performance issues to a CNL. It was the wrong place, the wrong time, in front of the wrong people...and I am suspended now pending 'investigation'.....which means that they can fire me for creating a hostile work place. Please tell me more about these types of situations, experiences anyone may have shared. I've been a bedside RN for a few years now, and still am surprised at how the system works; how dishonest and hypocritical the foundations of hospital appear. It seems to me, that if one has a good record of patient care, and exposes an upper associate for not fullfilling duties...the result causing a possible unsafe environment, that the the exposing of that person towards that person could be seen as hostile...of course! I know there is a correct way to go about complaints, but manager ignores a lot of complaints towards many....and enforces actions onto a few! I spend a lot of time cleaning up problems with the plan of care of my patients......if I were to report all these issues, I would be reporting every day! Help me maneuver this politic! Thank you. Please, no legal advice. Blessings and beautiful healing!
