Disciplinary Action/Licensure Board

Hi,

I work as a sleep technologist/RN and my regional manager is also a RN/sleep technologist. I learned recently learned the person who trained myself and several others is not licensed in our state to function as a sleep tech, to provide OTJ and was specifically instructed by our regional manager to train at our location.

Apparently, two former colleagues have banned together to report not only the Trainer but our manager too, for providing/facilitating OTJ by an unlicensed person. They are providing a series of documents, emails and videographic proof of him doing so. Also, there are email exchanges between staff, the trainer and our manager in which they specifically talk about him  training at our site.

I was asked to provide anything that validates this to further prove it, so I did. I found several training checklists with his name on it as well as video recorded sleep study's with him actually providing patient care. We've been updated that the state has now assigned the case to an investigator, as our state licensing board for sleep study believes this is considered gross negligence since it's several individuals and the hospital site involved in allowing  the trainer to have access to the premises. This manager and the trainer happen to be very horrible people to work for.

Is it likely the BON will intervene since my boss does still have a nurse license? I would like to initiate a formal complaint against him, and a few other former colleagues would like to provide statements as well. What usually does the BON do in cases of this nature?
