I'm seriously looking into traveling in the next couple of months. I would like to take recommendations from anyone who likes their travel company enough to refer a new nurse. Thanks a lot.

BeenThere2012, my gosh you are one of the few people who can truly understand what has been happening! All the management, lawyers, investigators, coworkers, etc can all talk to whomever they wish, but I am not supposed to talk to anyone! Management keep pushing me to call EAP, not a bad idea, but not specifically helpful either. Apparently there is not a support for nurses navigating this problem, but there is one for physicians. I'm so sorry that you went through this. I feel that the injustice and damage and grief cannot be repaired, and your experience tells me I'm probably right.

What a thought: having never been in this boat before nor known anyone else that has been, I hope I have a good lawyer. Thank you so much for your kind comments. It means a lot.

The person I will file against if there is any possible way when this is all over, is the person who filed this slanderous, false complaint. I'm not in AZ and I have no previous experience with the BON.

kuippo you are right. I'm relying on my lawyer a lot and he says that it will be impossible for me to secure another job in nursing, or probably in any hospital, while this is going on. And that will take many more months, even up to or more than another year.

Personally and mentally I'm good. Professionally, I have a deep conviction that things will never be the same again. There is no way to fix what has been broken at my current job. I can't look for another job for many months while complaint is being resolved. I'm having big and exciting fantasies about moving into another field entirely. What would that be?? No idea, but surely there is something, right? I'm open to suggestions haha

Yes, I am currently dealing with a BON complaint. It is without basis, and was filed by one of my coworkers anonymously. Every time I think things are all discussed, and the stress might die down, another thing comes up. Someone (or more than one) at my workplace hates me enough to want to destroy my career and my reputation, and I have no idea why. It is really difficult to continue to show up for my shifts and pretend like everything is fine. I can't discuss any of it with anyone at work, so I have no cohort support. It is awkward to know that all the higher ups see my name in this context. I can't describe very well how horrible this experience is.
