Re: How would you handle this info?????? Please advise!
"
A nurse has recently come back to work after her husband committed suicide a few months ago."
If my husband committed suicide as recently as a few months ago, I wouldn't care about narc counts or IV bags or being hungover at work. Of course, if it were me, I wouldn't
be at work. Maybe the DON feels she is unstable in some way and that's why she hasn't done anything. Not that it makes it okay. I think it sounds like this nurse needs some kind of intervention, rather than just continuing to be fired from facilities. Something really bad is bound to happen eventually if not.
