They wouldn't have had to do a CYA wellness check and waste officers time if someone answered the phones at your facility. That's the real issue. If I was family and I couldn't reach someone where my loved one was staying, I'd lose my effing mind. I have had to call SNFs from the hospital and at one point had FIVE phones ringing for 20 minutes before the line went dead. I also had the DON on speed dial so guess who got a call at her home, late? Answer the phone.

You can't go back to what broke you to begin with. Going back to the old job never ends well. I'm more concerned about your attachment to the BF and see your anxiety. Nurses as a general rule, suck at picking partners for the right reasons. You seem to want to fix everything and everyone, even when you're off the clock. Sounds like you were worried that you're not working out which is a red flag that it might not work out. If it is real, there is no anxiety. If it's going to work out, it will in its own time. You don't have to force it you don't have to manipulate it you don't have to change who you are or what you do. If you were trying to make the wrong man work, and you weren't leaving any space for the right man at the right time. No man is worth it. Except the right one, and he won't ask. I feel like your indecisiveness with your career and your anxiety over a man might be worth a deeper dig into over all anxiety and mental health. They don't teach us healthy boundaries in nursing school. God knows we all need them. Oncology is a really hard and stressful. I was there for six years and burned out - hard. You will find no sustenance in a man or a job until you find your own peace. Your identity isn't in either the man or the career. You don't need to prove yourself to anyone. Your job will not love you back. Your man will not make you choose. Protect your peace at all cost. And if you don't have any, a good therapist and even meds can help you find your way. ❤️

Due to national staffing shortages, anyone dressed as a slutty nurse for Halloween will have to pick up a shift.
