I have a probation period on my license from a hospital that i worked at yrs ago. Their were 3 girls that called themselves the decade girls, which means one was in her 20s, one in 30s other one 40s. The one in her 20s not a good nurse patients complained alot, but she befriended the other 2 that were good nurse and had been at this hospital for a long time. The problem did not start right away, but when it did it started like a snowball effect. I unfortunitly happened to be working with her when she made her mistakes. 1 example was she approached me when my husband came in and brought me a salad and she came up to me and said she forgot to follow a doctors order and he was upset and she did not want to write herself up. I was the charge nurse asked her what she forgot to do and she told me not a hugh problem told her not to write herself up make it a lesson learn and to go and take care of it. Then not even 2 weeks later she wrote me up for the same circumstance, though i never knew it was her. So the write up began, I got called to the DON's office quite often though she did not sign any of them and i did not sign any of them. Still not knowing it was these girls doing this, most people that get wrote up is from the next shift not the shift you are working with. In the end i got let go but for a different reason. Then the DON left the oldest decade girl got to be acting DON. Losts more to this story, but was let go for a different reason, was told to come in and talk to human resources about cobra and she was there and told me she was terminating my employment for med errors. I got laughed and left, I went and applied for unemployment. They fought me on it, when the judge got us on the phone is when she found out about the being let go before she did it. whew talk about mad, henceforce she turned me in to the state. I could have fought it according to the lady who came to my home, but she said the hospital had more money than i did and my license would be suspended untill it went to court. I was put on probation and had to do 3 different CEU's. Never lost any of my priveleges to practice. I never had problems getting a job untill now the state said i have a unemcombered license. The minute they hear med errors they shut down. I do not know how to explain it without going on and on does anyone know how to go about this without me have to go on and on because it does not help.
