Fired after voicing concern about narcotic counts

Published

Yesterday I was fired. Not for anything I did or did not do or for incompetance but simply because according to the office mgr. "you just don't fit in." :angryfire Drugs weren't signed out. Proof of us records don't exist. Wastage not witnessed. I start a new job on Monday. Plan to report this to the board of nursing and the DEA.

Specializes in ICU,ER.

Regarding making copies of the proof of use records.....as a health oversight agency, HIPPA Law 104-191 allows these records to be copied without prior patient authorization when used for audits and investigation when making a legitimate complaint against a nurse. Therefore, these copies of records will be turned over to the BON and not kept in my possession and will be filed with a formal complaint.
