I am working my 1st job in a community hospital and I got a phone call asking if I wanted to be cancelled and be on re-call. I had no idea what staffing was talking about. Well it seems if the census is low, they call people to cancel them and we have to take vacation time or no pay. They are mandating time off on some floors. I was reading an article from the Mass. nursing association (they help w/unionization) and there take on it was that it is like a "rolling layoff" depriving nurses of their livelihood.
Just wondering if this happens at your facility and what your thoughts are about MNA's view. (our hosp. isn't union)
