    People keep telling me exactly what you are saying here. It’s just a matter of trying to convince me of it! It all makes a lot of sense but... Hopefully I get one of those moments of omg what the...

    I worked at a retirement home for 18 years. I was since terminated. One of the reasons is that I had two falls happen at the same time and apparently didn’t handle it up to standards. I quickly...

    When I hear that seniors there are asking about me then I know I have been a good nurse! When they wonder where I went and why I am not there anymore then I know! I have had someone say to me “I...

    Our union was very poor prior to this situation! That’s why I ended up here in the first place! The one rep wasn’t very supportive, they are suppose to work like a lawyer would and she didn’t!...

    Well May 3 is pretty much the day I find out whether or not I will be reinstated. If I don’t go back well I guess I need to figure something else out. And too late for that I am already

    I am getting Employment Insurance for the time being but it’s not a lot so am living off credit. It’s also hard to find a new job when you are terminated. Like what do you say to the new...

    And like the one person said here is that I did do a neuro assessment but it wasn’t done according to the form. Yes BP and pupil size etc is important. But so is their orientation and any other...

    And I guess this is the point I was trying to make in blaming management. No of course I don’t blame management for my errors but I do blame them for discord between staff and poisoned work...

    Yes thrown under the bus is def how I see it! Yes $ is all they care about! My co worker keeps saying how they have forgotten who has brought them to success! They were open only a few years before...

    They hired personal support workers to replace me on night shift. So yes I would say they got rid of me so they could pay the psws less $$. And to the message before the last one, you don’t have...

    They created the stress for me, took my leaves, then they fired me! Welcome to nursing life! The gratitude and appreciation is overwhelming!

    Marija1 replied to Marija1's topic in General Nursing

    I took a few sick leaves due to anxiety and depression but also stress from them. They probably didn’t feel like paying for that

    She was acting normal and responding etc. We just have a “new” form that includes BP and checking pupils. I didn’t do those things as I didn’t bring the BP monitor or flashlight with me....

    Weight bearing, mobility, ROM and pain. I will find out in a couple of weeks if I will be reinstated. If not then hopefully severance. I have been reading up on things and it seems that there is...

    The new manager gave me a letter every week since she started. Which certainly doesn’t give me time to improve or change anything. When they first started they had a meeting and stated “if there...

    Unfortunately there is a paper trail for minor issues. But it’s not about the same issue over and over again. I have since corrected those issues. So they did do the progressive discipline but...

    However, I don’t think here in Canada that they had “just cause” for dismissal. They actually have to explain to you what the issue is and provide ways for you to improve. They didn’t do...

    Also, an older nurse with clearly more experience, who is retired from there now, did not do neurovitals on any one either. So that tells you how much things have changed in “nursing 101” ....

    Wow the comments here sure did change from yesterday! Thank you for this! When I made that statement re more training before people were quick to insult and criticize me!! You don’t learn a lot...

    They also condoned this omission of neuro vitals in the past by myself and others. They never investigated to see if others were doing this as well. They never sat down with me to ask what exactly...
