2. Orienting a new hire - issues

3. Finally a Nurse Manager That Does NOT Tolerate Nurses Eating Their Young

   PeaceonearthRN replied to OnlybyHisgraceRN's topic in Relations

   My CEO has a no abuse policy!!!! Amen to that.... It's not a perfect environment, managers are 'young' and could use a course in engagement of staff; however, no abuse is nice.

9. Confrontation with bullies at work place; need advice with next step

   PeaceonearthRN replied to lululucy's topic in Relations

   My Dear, This sounds like my first job in a cardiac unit. It must be an attitude that is allowed to permiate throughout nursing, a 'right of passage' so to speak. All I can say is 'bullying interferes with learning and 'they' all should be fired. I w...
