  1. Just looking for a second opinion on this circumstance. I work as an LPN in long term care, 12 hour night shifts 7pm to 7am. Tonight is my first night shift ever as an LPN. Tonight was our med roll change In which we receive all new medication rolls for the residents for the week. The float nurse does one unit and I do two units. I did my units, she did hers and her shift ended at 0100hr. When preparing for my 0500 med pass at 0330 ( wanted to see what residents needed meds) I noticed that one resident did not receive a med roll at all (there was nothing in the medication bin). I called a nurse in a different building ( only one nurse per building) to ask what I should do in this situation. She told me that I can call the emergency pharmacy, but they probably won’t answer and the day nurse will most likely need to call them. I decide to phone the emergency pharmacy as per the other nurses recommendation and boy oh boy the lady who answered was not happy that I called. She said “why are you calling me about this now, there’s nothing I can do for you, why didn’t you call in the evening when we actually have people in” her tone of voice sounded very angry and she just continued to scold me about calling this late, and made me feel like a complete idiot. At the end of it all she asked me for my name and now I feel like I’m going to get into some kind of trouble. She says that they can’t even send us medications until the late afternoon because there is no one in until 9am. As of now the resident will not have any morning meds… I feel so dumb and as if I did something wrong by calling. And at the end of the call I felt really guilt/bad so I apologized and said “I’m sorry for waking you up”. What an idiot I am, sounds very passive aggressive now that I’m looking back on it.
