  8. Accused of Falsifying Vital Signs

    OK, you're a bit sporifice on details. The DON from your previous facility is investigating you and possibly 20 other nurses? How were you notified? By the state nursing board, Dept of Health, law...

  15. We’re all being “fired”! Is this legal?

    If you are in a right-to-work state, yes. However, have you talked to HR? And if no one gets certified, or only a few do, it would be suicide for them to fire
  16. Does being addressed as "Nurse" annoy anyone?

    I still don't understand why you feel this way because you are being addressed by who and what you are, a nurse. However, why not tell all of your patients not to call you "nurse" but by your first...
  17. LPN Supervisor Would Not Let Me Call Doctor

    There are many expressions, such as "stay in your own lane", etc. By going to an LTC, you "swerved out of your lane". The LPNs apparently resent RNs in "their lane". You are an invader. I personally...

  20. LPN Supervisor Would Not Let Me Call Doctor

    You should have asked the Supervisor her critical thinking on why she thought to NOT call the provider and then made the judgement on what to do. As an RN, as previously stated, an LPN CANNOT...

    Suspended for 3 weeks? You didn't mention whether or not you sat down with your Nurse Manager/Director, HR, etc. Depending on the state your in , recording without consent is illegal. It sounds like...
  25. Should I go for my LPN or RN?

    With the current, and past, environment, there is no legitimate reason to get an LPN. The majority of hospitals require RN and a BSN. Getting an LPN and then bridging to RN is a waste of time for the...
