HELLO TO ALL, AND THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY RESPONSES RECEIVED REGARDING THIS ISSUE! WAS TERMINATED FROM THE JOB I HAVE HELD FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS FOR "SUSPICION OF NARCOTIC DIVERSION". THEY STATED A PATIENT COMPLAINED THAT SHE WAS NOT GIVEN A MED THAT I DOCUMENTED SHE DID, WHEN SHE HAD FAMILY THERE WHEN THE MEDS WERE ALL GIVEN. THEY HAVE HAD ME BLACKBALLED FOR OVER A YEAR NOW WHEN I ASKED TO BE TRANSFERRED TO ANOTHER UNIT DUE TO EXTREME HARASSMENT FROM MY MANAGER, WHICH I GOT HER TO ADMIT TO ALL ON TAPE. SO THE DON CALLED ME, AND TOLD ME HER REASONS FOR TERMINATING ME WERE FOR 1.THE PATIENT STATING SHE DIDN'T GET THE MED, 2. A DEMEROL DOSE I FORGOT TO SIGN ON THE MAR, 3.ME GOING TO THE BATHROOM TOO MUCH (THO I HAVE A DOCUMENTED DIAGNOSIS OF IBS, AND 4. MY HANDWRITING GETTING SLOPPY BY THE END OF THE SHIFT. i OFFERED TO TAKE A DRUG TEST, SHE REFUSED SAYING IT WOULD NOT DO ANY GOOD. SHE RECOMMENDED ME TO TURN MY SELF IN TO THE NCBON. I HAVE NEVER HAD A COMPLAINT FILED ON ME MY WHOLE CAREER, MY PATIENTS ADORE ME. AND IN FACT I DO GIVE A LOT OF PAIN AND NAUSEA MEDS BECAUSE MY PATIENTS ASK ME TO DUE TO THE FACT THEY SAY THE NIGHT NURSES WONT COME TO RESPOND TO THE CALL BELLS. I ALSO TAKE THEM TO THE POTTY OR BEDPAN, OR WHATEVER ELSE THE CASE MAY BE AND OFTEN DONT LEAVE MY JOB UNTIL 9PM BECAUSE I STAY SO BUSY TRYING TO MEET MY PTIENTS EVERY NEED, SO I NEED TO KNOW SHOULD I IN FACT SELF REPORT MY SIDE OF THESE ALLEGATIONS TO THE BON, SHOULD I HIRE A LAWYER, AND IF SO WHO? AND WHAT SHOULD I DO FROM HERE, I AM SO DEPRESSED AND OUTRAGED THAT I AM UTTERLY LOST. THANKS IN ADVANCE TIFFANY
