Actually the DON and I have been friends a long time, before I even started working at the facility. And we have talked about someone possibly taking them out of her box, I'm not upset with her, the situation is what had me upset. She knew I turned them in, another coworker saw me turn them in also. I just wondered if it was in fact ok to rewrite the reports almost 5 days later, and was frustrated because the reports are a 10 pg packet to begin with and they take a lot of time, time I don't have as I work about 10hrs over my scheduled time weekly the way it is.

Thank you everyone for your input. I redid both incident reports today and hand wrote, "Original report turned in to DON mailbox on 12-14-15. This is the 2nd submission of the report. Answers here may not be exactly the same as the original." And signed and dated it, glad they're done, I have copies now. Now I hope there's no backlash because I wrote that.....

Hoping for some insight here- I am an RN at a small nursing home. On Monday of this week, I submitted 2 incident reports to my DON, she admits that she "KNOWS" I did them but now, on Friday, they are nowhere to be found. She is requesting that I redo them over the weekend to have them ready for her on Monday morning. I am not sure I feel this is right? I didn't lose them and I can hardly remember yesterday, let alone Monday. The incident report is just a facility policy, it isn't part of the chart (we still paper chart). Any input? Thanks!
