Please stop calling me in the middle of the day on my days off begging me to come in.....
Its called a schedule for a reason. I am new and already overwhelmed just working my scheduled time. I need my down time. I need to reacquaint myself with the friends and family that I ignored while I was in school.
I get that we are a for profit organization. However, it is not my fault that we have too many LPN and not enough RN so that we can save a few dollars here and there.
You are going to have to hire more RNs and staff up. You run around worrying about patient satisfaction and Press Gainey and yet the company lets accountants control the floor.
You are smart boss, you know what you need to do and you certainly dont need to hear it from a newb like me.
I hate telling you no, but I am going to continue to do so. If I do not, my health will suffer and my patients will be at serious risk secondary to my exhaustion.
I will be there when I am scheduled. It will be a cold day in Hades when I call off. I promise that.
But more than my three 12's which are actually more like 18's when you factor in travel time and charting and meetings......???
NO NO NO.....I am sorry, but NO
