I heard the most ridiculous thing. Has anyone ever heard of someone getting disciplined by having their hourly pay reduced?
The person I believe has only had one verbal warning for what I would take as a minor infraction( not any nurse errors) but was told then they might have their pay reduced. person's been there for over 5 years.
If this is true, all I can say is wow (
I know staff who have been demoted with pay cut via the clinical ladder. Even a couple who were demoted specifically for too much overtime. A clinical ladder with a demotion clause is an insult and makes a joke about us being professionals. But to use the clinical ladder over unrelated issues such as overtime is ridiculous. Too much overtime has nothing to do with a nurse being a level II, III, or IV in my opinion.
I've also heard from nursing home CNA's whose pay was cut after many years just to save money. Of course they left that employer.

Another great reason why every state should have nursing unions.
