So I left one of my jobs, leaving a resignation letter in a mailbox they said I could use to drop off papers and in the resignation I said when my last day was and everything. I don't know if my now former employer just hasn't checked the mail, or if they refuse to acknowledge the letter, but the date I put has come and passed and I have my former employer constantly calling me, and messaging me telling me to come into work.
My concern is that before I started working there, they said that they will go after us for patient abandonment if they deem we didn't give them enough notice. I will admit I didn't give them two weeks notice (as I couldn't properly fulfill the needs required due to personal reasons), however I did give them a few days notice. I am worried they will try to sue me with patient abandonment and if I need to be prepared for such an action. Is this an actual threat they can follow up on? The company was a home health company and they keep calling saying they don't have anyone to come in for the people I was scheduled for, but again I did quit the company my last day being a few days ago.
This is also in Michigan if that helps
