    experience with a hostile work environment

    If you can prove damages you might have a case but this would be different than a hostile work environment unless you are in a protected class. Also, litigating a defamation case would be extremely...
  2. My opinion is if they're being monitored on the unit then they need monitored while
  3. I hear what you're saying however, I feel like there's a "but" attached to her words which in my mind negates taking
  4. I don't disagree completely (except the medication was in the patient profile, RV just didn't know it) but that still doesn't negate the fact that she did not follow the rules of safe medication...

    experience with a hostile work environment

    The problem with trying to make a case is that if you are not part of a protected class and/or the hostility is not focused on whatever makes you part of that class then you cannot make a "hostile...
  6. I am mystified how simply stating facts can be considered "nasty" or "bitter". They're facts...ugly ones for sure but still just...facts. I'm also laughing at the irony of the posters mounting...
  7. Did you read the title of this post? You speak of a lack of compassion. I think profiting off of killing another human being, whether you meant to or not, is the most egregious example of a lack of...
  8. In her own testimony she denied being rushed, tired or stressed. In fact, her unit was so over-staffed she didn't even have an assignment and was functioning as a resource nurse (ie: help-all,...
  9. I took it as a means to point out who the actual victim was in this situation given the hand-wringing and complaints of the "victimization" of RV by some of the posters
  10. If that condemnation forces every nurse out there to scrutinize their own practice then I believe it is a win for our vulnerable patients and our
  11. I'm going to say this loud for the people in the back. This. Was. Not. A. Mistake. This was a series of bad choices to ignore multiple warnings, basic (and I mean basic) tenets of safe medication...
  12. I read the second article and found it to be much more in line with the facts as stated in the various reports and then I read the comments. 🙄 "Darlene" took the author to task about alleged...
  13. Did you hear about her "healing" cruise to Costa
  14. Won't happen , just like the poster who accused us of wanting RV to "starve, become homeless or a prostitute" could not support her/his claim when challenged to provide direct
  15. The irony here is
  16. I know this is going to shock the heck out of you but I actually don't

    struggling at work as new grad

    Basically it's a piece of paper divided into blocks for each patient. You list what tasks need done at what time. It gives you a visual of how to sort your day out and helps you to not miss
  18. Where exactly did you see any one of us say this? I'd like a direct quote. I'll
  19. I don't think, for most of us, the issue is her potential earnings. It's the very fact that she's out there passing herself off as a victim of the system and getting anything in return. It's just...
  20. I'm not that familiar with the Cali market but I would not think it would be an issue. Your experience in the ICU is largely what you make of it. Learn what you can from the patients you have, seek...
  21. 8 weeks is really short for a new grad. 12 weeks is customary so I would see if you can negotiate that. Otherwise, even with the contract, I feel like this could be a great experience for you. Even...
  22. What would your orientation
  23. Not as long as she keeps giving us reason to have discussions about her. You can scroll past if they bother
  24. Is there a reason you are yelling your credentials at
