I just came asking for advice on a situation. There was a situation where a patient had to go the the ER and the nurse didn't assess the patient. This and most situations of this magnitude are swept under the rug. Many shady events have happened over this year, with COVID, and deaths that we've had. No one is held accountable for adverse outcomes. Heck, I don't know how many lawsuits came out of this.
This is a very toxic environment, employees argue with each other even threatening others and being derogatory. I have been at this job for over a year, I was a new nurse so I took the position. Should I give a two weeks notice or should I quit? I can't see myself working or finishing a two weeks under these conditions. I don't know if I should stick it out. I fear retaliation, even though I didn't do anything wrong to the patient and that they will scrutinize me for the remainder of my notice and with as many patients as we have, it is easy to make a mistake even if it is minor. I am in a position where I can quit, but I don't know if it's a good idea. What are the consequences?
Any thoughts?
