   Let me just clarify this for everyone: I did NOT report her nor go off running to the BON. The only reason the BON is even on there is because my entire administration protect each other, and I can't trust any of them. So who else do I go to? Th...

   I've gotten bad report before numerous times, so I'm no stranger to having to read through labs/notes to find out what's going on. In this case, no one ever took over care of the patient and report was never given.

   Just looking for some advice on a situation and whether to report or not or even how high to escalate it. I work in a neuro ICU as a charge nurse and return to work one day to find that the day shift charge (L) had left early due to an emergency; app...
