I am just sitting here with my mouth hanging open. On Day One of go live with our bedside reporting, our big boss(not an assistant manager) was following nurses to "coach" them. A nurse who has been here for 30+ years and is probably one of the most stoic people I've ever met was apparently dressed down in front of the patient, to the point of the nurse crying so hard she couldn't speak.
Let me repeat, day one. The nurse receiving report attempted to redirect and prompt and she had the micromanaging ire turned on her. They are insisting we do everything just so(like: offgoing nurse must do x, y, and z and oncoming must do a, b, c when really either could do them, and you'd best get your scripts perfect.) Any plus sides to this are being drowned by management control and humiliation. Half the floor is looking for a new job. It's the height of inappropriate behavior.
