  1. Mandatory Overtime?

    It just depends on the schedule. We may, or may not need to stay late. We are starting at our regular time and if the schedule runs past our normal end of day time, those designated late are expected to stay. Most of the staff is considered part t...
  2. Rant: subservient RNs

    Very frustrated with where I work right now. I am used to a very cohesive, interdisciplinary group of proffesionals that address issues that come up together. In my newish job (been there close to a year) Everyone runs to the manager with complaints....

    Oh my. I just feel like this is harassment that should be addressed. It is obvious that you are not 100% ready to be off orientation!! Maybe go to your manager and suggest a skills fair for the unit, also invite the critical care chief to the meeting...
  13. Feeling like the dumbest nurse on earth

    Listen, this post makes me feel very bad and I'm sorry you are being treated so awfully. My suggestion to you is to set up a meeting with your educator and/or your nurse manager. Be sure to also invite your preceptor to this meeting. You need to sit ...
