I moved to the state of Illinois to take a nurse midwife position. I moved at my own expense for the sole purpose of taking the midwife job offered. I worked a little over a week and the hospital told me my former employer gave me a negative review. They said I would not be successful at the credentialing committee and should resign. Yes, they allowed me to start work before credentialing me fully. I gave them 8 positive references. I have never had a disciplinary action on my license or been to HR at any job for a disciplinary action. I was not allowed to know which hospital gave me a bad reference or the detail of the reference. Basically, I paid my money to relocate, purchased a home, and now I have no job to support my family. I have spoken to a few attorneys and all agree it sounds strange but site that Illinois is a right to hire/right to fire state. It seems like this is defamation of character from my former employer and denial of due process from this position that denied me privileges What do I do?
