i was in such a position many years ago as a fresh new green lpn workin nnder a young rn that had been inn the hospital for 8 years, i question her position on a certain matter and she quoted" no other lpn has ever question me in this way ever," need less to say, several narcs came up missing(like 10 percocets on a ob floor, thay only she and i had access to in the narc room since it was only her and i on the floor 7p-7a shift, to make a long story short, i said we were not living this narc room untill house supervisor came to narc room to find the missin percocets and i was about to pick up the phone in the narc room to call him up to the floor, before i could finish dialing the ext. the rn had found the 10 percocets in the trash can, she had apparently throwed them out by mstake without signing them out first and i could not believe what had happeded, i was so scared as a new lpn. i phoned my lpn nursing instructor and asked her advise on how to handle this situation, her reply" turn your notice in today effectively asap, explain what happened to the DON and never look back. The reasoning ny lpn instruction simply stated " she will be out to get you from now on because you question her in a situation and she did not like it. So again my instructor said" who are they gonna believe, someone just started or a rn that's been there for 8 years. So i trusted my lpn instructor and that's why i called her, she had been an rn for 25 years and she stated" sharon there are some viscious nurses out there and you will learn in time. so i did what she said to do and never looked back because i trusted this rn instructor. my question is, does this happen alot in ahospital setting if you make a rn ****** @ you??????
