Sounds like your courage to stand up for what's right payed off for you. Congratulations for sticking up for yourself. Your previous employer's loss si your new employer's gain. Thanks again.

Thanks a bunch for the info. Do you work at a LTC facility or acute care? Metropolitan or rural? When you say "working you short" do you mean your not getting enough hours or are you working with to little staff? Our facility seems to be really cutting back on the overtime that many people depended on. They won't let nurses schedule overtime but they don't hesitate to go down the employee list calling people who are scheduled off to see if they will come in to work because they didn't schedule enough nurses in the first place. This really ticks me off because i hate being called a 4am on my day off just so they can ask me if i want to come in and work at a momments notice. Thanks again

How has the nursing shortage impacted your job? Three years ago it seemed like every where you looked the nursing shortage was in the media. Is it any better now or have people just stopped talking about it? I'm considering doing a big research paper on the subject. I'm just getting started with the actual statistics and other numbers. I'm interested in others opinions. Thankyou.
