  1. ethical dilemma....nurse lied.

    Maybe she was embarassed. Or maybe she was afraid someone on here may recognize who she was, maybe even works with her. I'm just glad she came and asked for the advice, even if she never writes...

  5. warning or write up????

    Very common, but still cannot be tolerated. I was weekend supervisor at one LTC and due to many call in's, I had to switch two CNA's to other floors. Well, they just threw a fit and threatened to...
  6. 1st day off orientation was HORRIBLE

    This won't be the last of your bad days. And then you will also have slow, boring days. That's the way it works, crazy as it is. Any nurse who has a problem with you leaving some things for the...
  7. Please don't say "I told you so"

    First of all, this isn't burnout, so don't be afraid of that. Second, don't go back; and call the state. If it is as bad as you say, state should know about it; if it was just some kind of a weirdo...
  8. floating

    I think it is appropriate. It's an LTC. It's not like you are being floated from OB to Neuro. Anything you need to do in an LTC you should already know. If you ask for more orientation time, they...
  9. Help!!!!!!!!!

    Yeah, what about your personal worksheet that you carry around with you? It is INTOLERABLE for notes to be missing. VERY, VERY, VERY illegal. If I were you I would take this as high as you can to...

  17. ethical dilemma....nurse lied.

    Ok. It's me again. I've been thinking hard on this one and I have come to a decision. IF IT WAS ME, I'm not saying it is, but if it was, I would come forward and tell the complete truth and to hell...
  18. ethical dilemma....nurse lied.

    I think this is actually the first time that I am speechless. I just don't know what to advise you to do. It's never too late to tell the truth. You may suffer terrible consequences, though, if you...

  21. What would you do?

    Sounds like the situation has gone on far too long. I'm not in your position, so I don't know how feasible it would be, but if I were the charge nurse, I would quietly say to her "Excuse me, I think...

  25. One month Notice?????

    If you don't have to start a new job within that four weeks, then why not stay. If you do have to start a new job, then screw 'em. They don't need four weeks to find a replacement unless you are some...
