I am seeking support and or advice. I am just so worn out with my new job. I left an agency that was a bit corrupt and fruadulent with claims to go to one that has NO idea *** is going on.
I can't seem to go a day without some major screw up. My list this week alone and my week starts on Sun...being assigned to see patients over the weekend who already died, calling my manager to alert them.. never getting a call back, ( she claims our phone list is incorrect.. last time I checked all cells have caller id... and my phone is unlocked ) getting called by the secretary to call in refills on a patient that isn't mine. Having patients reassigned every week, rotating nurses.
I have NO access to our office report line. Meaning I have no idea what's going on. I have reported this since I started a month ago. They still have not given me my pass code. I have been verbally reprimanded on paperwork that I have never been given oreitnation too. I spent 4 hours with a nurse out in the field and sent out on m own "because you are an experienced nurse".
Our admissions nurses are given 3 patients to case manage and they took one of my patients away for this? This nurse lives 25 miles away, and I lived 4 miles away.
Today I asked our office manager if my payroll I entered in our computer from home was accepted? It seemed to be on my end. She said.. on who are you? Oh no.. it' hasn't. ****
DId I just make the biggest mistake ever? I am so concerned... and I am worried that something is going to go wrong and I will be tossed under the bus llke they have tried to do so many times.
THe only perks? I have excellent pay, great benefits and a new administrator that is the ONLY one with her head on straight.

Noey, it never ceases to amaze me...the number of nurse managers who have NO CLUE how to EFFECTIVELY manage people. sigh.
