  1. Couple of things: No. See this is why some of us find her behavior as a nurse (and person) completely inappropriate. Of course the patient did not need monitoring as a result of her current...
  2. I would be surprised if they would entertain a meeting with you and a lawyer or anyone else really. I typed another reply yesterday regarding the social media campaign idea, because that seems...
  3. They are miserable. Coulda stopped reading at the part where a PRN employee is required to give 4 weeks notice. No legal experience here but unless you happen to speak to a lawyer who knows...

    Misleading Employment contract

    A commitment contract with the extra commitment itself rendering no direct benefit to yourself may not speak well for the scruples of the organization. A direct benefit does exist of sorts, which...

    Wrongful Termination

    These people sound like jerks, all of them. I would have never agreed to those restrictions after the first go-round, by the way. I know it's too late for that bit, but now you know. Sorry you...

    Should I take management offer?

    We're all different and I understand your concern but I would MUCH rather have to work at winning over a somewhat jerky physician than listen to and constantly manage and deal with the life...

    Should I take management offer?

    It really depends on your skills, interests and personal career goals. It's interesting that you say you would regret not having taken the managerial role if the physician with whom you are...
  9. If you're torn or not sure you want to make the move now, keep in mind there will be more. These days this isn't any kind of once-in-a -career opportunity.

    HELP! last year ADN

    Since this could go bad depending on how much of a power-trip she goes on, I would at least consider asking if you can meet with her again and just stay very calm and polite and state that you did not...

    FNP preceptor

    Don't mean to be Debbie Downer but ^ this to me is a double-down on the original outrage of not actually planning where they're putting their students to begin with and somehow shoveling that...
  12. This whole comment is way off base. You need to think in terms of someone who runs a red light at 120 mph and while looking at their phone, who thoroughly runs clean over a pedestrian rightfully...

    Is this legal?

    Under what pretenses are you being sent to the appointments, in other words, what do they say is the reason that you need to go? If nothing else this sounds like it is not part of the job you thought...

    Do I need a lawyer?

    Agree w/ @Rose_Queen. Natural to feel a little apprehensive or anxious about this but try to go in expecting the best, which is just as was described above--they are not there to blame or...

    PRN Nurse Hours Reduced?

    For better or worse it is precisely the issue. They don't have to give you any hours, regardless of how many available hours there are or how many you estimate need to be covered by someone. As is...
  17. Was likewise curious some time back during a previous discussion and looked into it (minimally); it appears these laws have faced legal challenges over the years; a challenge of the original law in NY...

    Hospital Visit with a Disability

    Unless there's something missing here, I really do not feel you should *have* to do that in order to be regarded appropriately (that is, as competent adult). I'm not saying it is a wrong suggestion or...
  19. Don't know if you will see this reply so long after your post but if I worked in a place like that I would be making my exit. Life is waaaaaay too short. I'm 100% serious. Don't argue your point...

    Help & HIPAA

    Do not use your personal device to communicate anything that is PHI (protected health information), **OR anything that a random busybody might be concerned is PHI.** It's best (safest) to not use your...

    Ethical Question

    Well as I'm sure you know, despite your sarcasm, no one needs to check in with anyone. You, too, can easily see when someone last visited the site. But to answer your question, it was meant to be...

    Hospital Visit with a Disability

    (If accurate) I would tell them that you strongly prefer transferring in a manner that is comfortable to you, the way you do it every single day. I'm imagining "overhead" lift to mean something...

    So hard for new nurse

    Well this has certainly been a rotten experience for you. I doubt that moving on will prove to have been the wrong move. Take whatever legitimate learning experiences you can from this (there is...
  25. I think you can let us know of the convictions you know of...that doesn't seem like privileged information. There are individual aspects of this case that many if not most of us could...
