  1. I actually got my offer letter for another job! I'm leaving! Thank goodness!!!
  2. Psych guy. I'm in a retail clinic alone so I do t have anyone to rely on as resource for seeing patients online. My collaborative isn't participating in the online program so that's what makes it really iffy for me. Goldenfox I'm not comfortable seeing patients online. I'm still trying to develop my routine as a provider but that's getting better and better by the day. They moved me from an office to a retail clinic so I've made several adjustments while starting my new role.
  3. I'm a new nurse practitioner so I'm trying to get a routine down and get comfortable. So they took me out of the office once I was starting to get comfortable. Then put me in this retail clinic (which I was hired for) then they sprung this seeing patients online, similar to Skype. So I'm still trying to adjust to a new role so that's why I'm not comfortable seeing patients online. I have not signed a contract and my offer letter doesn't have much in it.
  4. Recently I took a position working in a retail clinic. Prior to the clinic opening I was placed in a doctors office (this Is a large company). So I am a brand new nurse practitioner. In the office I was not allowed to have my own nurse because "I would not have one in the clinic" I was told prior to starting that I would only be seeing same day sick patients. However, I was seeing everything and was not allowed to start my own patient panel but they kept making me see new patients and also patients who were not mine and managing their chronic illnesses. There was one time when the MD's nurse had gone on vacation and I was required to be his nurse, my own nurse, and a nurse practitioner. Fast forward to now....I'm in the retail clinic. Where I was required to put together office chairs, vital signs machines etc. All the things I need are not in place yet. My height chart hasn't been mounted so I had to purchase a tape measure to perform a school physical. Then I was told when I'm not seeing patients I must log on to a Skype type platform and see patients via the Internet. I have told the administrator several times I'm not comfortable as a nurse practitioner seeing patients in the office (I have been seeing patients about 3-4 months which have been the bear minimum patients because the doctors in the office would double or triple book themselves so I wouldn't see their patients) so I know I'm not going to be comfortable seeing patients on this platform. So basically today after not responding to my email for about a week and a half, she told me well we keep your time at a minimum. But we need you to fill in occasionally. I'm not sure what to do, what rights I have, I can't perform safe patient care if I'm not comfortable. When I took this position I was told things like I would only work every third weekend. I have worked every weekend since I have been in the clinic. Typically 5 days in a row. (8-12 hour shifts). I'm not sure how to approach this... Anyone have any advice?
