Do you help cover up for your collegues errors?

Do you cover up for collegues that you know are in error according to JACHO or OSHA?

Recently I have experienced being patient family whom has not been able to get approperiate care for my Mother and the Nursing staff and facility are covering it up..... among the offences: No bath, ice water, assistance to the bathroom, suctioning at anytime in the first 7 days of a new trach placement, no patient teaching, lack of VS being taken, falsifacation of med administration, falsification of patient education sheet, callights being shut off without response from remote location, flat bed when soposed to be HOB up do to back problems, and even the ENT doctor is T.O. d/t the lack of patient care. In the last two weeks we have been very disappointed at the abilities of not only nursing but the respitory staff at this facility. I have covered for collegues but also it was in cases where they were ignorant and taught them approperiate care / tequniques. My experience as a family member has changed my mind. :confused: Why in our proffession of caring and protection are we tolerating such behaviors? Short staffing is not an acceptable excuse.
