Hi. I just wanted to ask how you got hired in LTC as a new grad? I got my license 6 months ago and I still don't have a job. - Im in SF area. Need some advice please.... thanks : )

are you working as an LVN now?

The administrator reported it to the BON. 4 months after the incident, she received a letter from the Department of consumer affairs asking her to authorize them to release her personnel records - where she used to work. After authorizing to release her records, anyone has any idea what will happen next?

MurrR, thanks for replying. her RN license is from CA

What will happen to an RN who admitted falsifying a patients medical record? will the license be suspended, revoked? STORY A close friend of mine working in LTC 40+:1 patient:nurse ratio. One patient with end stage renal was found bleeding the RN immediately called 911 but the patient wasn't able to survive. The patient's shunt was dislodged and they cannot find out how it happened. The RN wasn't able to closely monitor the patient because of the overwhelming work and the number of patients on her shift, she wasn't able to get the patient's blood pressure... the problem is- she admitted that she charted a false blood pressure. She was terminated. This happened September 2010. Does anyone know what will happen to her license? will it be suspended/revoked?
