Hi! I am new to Allnurses so let me introduce myself. I am an LPN, mom to three perfect (ok, not really but I think so!) children. I work in Pediatrics and its such an awesome job.
Long story short. There is an LPN at a facility that has made horrible comments about me on Facebook. The quickest backstory I can give you is she was in highschool, is my first cousin, was a minor and was sleeping with my husband when I took her in as a runaway.
Fastforward some years later. I divorced the should-be sex offender and life went on.
She and him are now married and they quit their jobs just over a year ago to move here and have largely interfered with the life I single handedly created for the children and I.
She is a whole 24 now. And is in a leadership position at her job. I dont know how she has always managed those types of jobs based on her experience but she has since right out of nursing school. Good for her though!
On top of making my children miserable she also publicly post stuff about me on facebook (inaccurate stuff that is very unflattering) and has even talked about punching someone in the face (albeit she didnt say me, but I get the idea its me).
Due to her deciding my ex husband is paying too much in child support, I now have to work most every day of the week, with a day off about once or twice a month, until the court can get that straight. I applied with the company she now works for (I didnt know she worked there; they quit their jobs in another state and moved here and I didnt know where she worked). I am needing to leave my current job to go somewhere that can pay better. However, I recieved a response from her today offering an interview. I did feel she should have asked another person to respond as she has been asked not to email me, but whatever.
Can I contact the board of nursing to show them all of the comments publicly made about me on facebook? Is it ok to contact her employer to let them know as well? Id love to put an end to her behavior and over the years have not been able to do much about it as legally if she doesnt touch me, theres little you can do.
How would the BON feel about this behavior and is it unethical for me to reach out to her employer?
