I guess you had to be there. I haven't made a report of this kind in 17 years. And I wouldn't expect anyone to believe that I really did hope that I was wrong. The protocol as is it was written exists to protect that nurse, if innocent of wrongdoing, from ever knowing there was a suspicion. The same protocol protects the accuser from feeling as though they should not report suspicious behavior. It was not a mission to blacken a name or get someone fired.

More to add

Not emails, just 1 follow up email, because I knew that my manager had not been following protocol. She did not initiate a pharmacy audit. She did not contact security. I did not mention this in my email. I did not voice these concerns aloud. I simply asked if my concern had been received. I know it sounds as though I could be exaggerating or elaborating...i am wondering if whistleblower laws apply to situations such as these.

Good evening all. I just had the worst night ever and could use a little professional support/advise. I have recently began to suspect a nurse on my floor of diverting narcotics. She never did anything i could definitively say yes! That is it! But there were enough little incidents with the counts and stories that didn't add up that I felt it was time to report it to my supervisor. I didn't receive any kind of acknowledgement so after 3 days I emailed my super isor and cc'd her supervisor and assured them that I was in no way looking to find out the results if any investigation, I just wanted to be sure that I had done what I needed to do. Then this evening, I was terminated. I am a travel nurse who has been with this facility for 11 months. Their official explanation was overstepping boundaries with regards to pharmacy audits. Any thoughts?
