Nurses Relations

Published

I need some input from all of you on this issue, thank you in advance.. I work in a small doctors office for a physician and nurse practitioner, who happens to be husband and wife. The wife dislikes me because I am female, don't know of any other way to put it. She has done many things to me over my six years of working with them, most of them regarding personal property issues and verbal abuse. I have informed the physician of these problems , he gives her a slap on the hand and tells me to suck in up and move on, that she has jealously issues and there's nothing that is going to change that.

I love my job there and tolerate her behavior for that reason. Last week I found where she wrote in a patients chart that I gave an order to an outside nursing agency regarding a dangerous medicine and what to do about it. This is the last straw for me, I never talked to anyone regarding this patients care and would not ever do so unless instructed to by a

superior. The person from the other agency (also a nurse) backs up my story and is going to put in writing ,what really occurred. This is a deliberate and malicious act against me and affects me lively hood now. I know taking it to the physician again is not going to get me anywhere so would the nursing board take care of this type of complaint? Would I be better off just to get out of there and forget and move on?
