So I'm on my 2nd travel assignment in a very small hospital. The unit I'm on is a psych unit. Geriatric and adolescents. There are a HUGE amount of things going on in this unit that could potentially cause a problem with my license, and in my opinion could be considered abuse. Now I'm the nurse getting blamed for things that were happening before I even arrived. I realize it's the travel nurse that gets thrown under the bus. I've talked to my agency and they said they can investigate and pull my contract and put me somewhere else if they can't solve it. At this point though, I'm not sure I want to finish this contract, and I'm sure there will be repercussions and backlash from an investigation. I'm thinking I just want to cut my losses, leave, and report them. Any advice? Davey Do or Ned RN, I could use your expert advice. Thanks in advance.
