OP, you are responsible for the tech. Not in the they are working under your license responsibility. But that you are their superior & if they do something wrong you can possibly get in trouble...
You don't have to work with someone you rear end. Also both the OP & Jen made mistakes. I've been in a major car accident & I was told by my attorney to send a letter apologizing for the...
He is in his 20s, he should know better & handled the situation better as well. I don't know what age has to do with. They were both wrong. Also, I doubt it only took 10 seconds to go to the break...
If she hasn't filed an incident report I would suggest getting your charge or NM & Jen to clear the air so all of this doesn't turn into a toxic work environment between the two of you. You don't...
Why should it take a meeting with the OP, Jen *and* a charge nurse? The OP (& Jen) should be smart & be adult enough to know that they should apologize. The only time I had similar drama to...
I don't think the two should talk alone. That would be a horrid idea. I think they need to clear the air with a charge nurse or nurse manager with them in the room. You'll have to ask the OP why he...
Of course. If Jen *did* act that way then she should be apologizing too. lol your Mexican side! Hahahahaha! Yeah being blocked in is not fun & can be really scary. That's why I don't understand...
Since when does apologizing provide someone with "more ammo"? Not only should the OP apologize but Jen should too. They need to calmly talk to each other, discuss what happened to get their feelings...
I can't believe the amount of people telling the OP not to apologize. Honestly it makes me sick. He is a man & made Jen feel threatened. I don't think Jen is out for the OP's job & wants the...
I feel like my mind imploded when you pointed that out. My jaw dropped. How many pages in are we & no one else pointed that out? I'm shocked. Something definitely seems off now. Why would you go...
~Mi Vida Loca~RN brought up a *great* NO *excellent* point. Why did the OP go to the break room to talk to Jen when the OP stated Jen was walking into the break room for lunch as he was leaving. What...
Omg! Why did no one realize this before!!!!! That is so weird!!! Why would he go back to the break room to ask her about her break/lunch if Jen went into the break room as he was leaving?? Something...
I wouldn't become a medical assistant as you are following the medical model of care & not the nursing model. Try looking into community colleges, they are cheaper & offer financial aid. I...
I think drama like that in the workplace should be avoided at all costs. I'm not saying people should be doormats or kissing people's behinds, but the way the OP blocked Jen in the room & how Jen...
So if he was in the middle of passing meds & went to the break room, what did he do with his meds? He had to do something with them. The time he spent going to the break room was time he could've...
LOL! í ½í¸‚ That's true, they will have to wait. But was it really worth it for him to go through all of what he went through when he was right by the patient's door & all he had to do was...
I disagree with the statement I bolded. I think the reason so many people are saying the OP should've just covered the IV site is because he was already there & instead of making the family wait...
Exactly! I just don't understand why the OP spent so much time & energy hunting down the tech when all he had to do was wrap the IV site & go on with his med pass. I understand he currently...
