At the place in which I work the director has started a new disciplinary method for nurses who have been reported for some wrongdoing regardless of whether it is against policy or a complaint from a fellow staff member. She makes them come up with an "action plan". From what I understand this is a long essay where references are required and there are roman numerals and subgroups a,b,c and the "goals" are written in by the director.
I was shocked when I heard about this. I understand the point is to think about what was done and how to correct it, but this seems extremely punitive, humiliating and time consuming. If it's not done to their satisfaction the nurse has to revise it. One nurse had to do it 5 times before it was accepted.
Has anyone else heard of this or experienced this where they work?
