This was based on a complaint from a patient and her mother. I did specialty infusion with IVIG. Pt was put on IVIG infusion, but the insurance, Medi-Cal (Medicaid), only allowed 2 hours for the patient. I did the visit, did a lot of teaching but the mother insisted that the nurse be with the patient for the ENTIRE infusion - this is the usual standard, but the insurance only allowed 2 hours. The pt and her mother made a lot of allegations, stating that the infusion site failed, etc. It was just a mess. This patient and her mother have a habit of filing complaints and allegations. This has resulted in a prolonged probation.

In November, 2025 I will be off probation. I am extremely lucky to have been kept on at my current job in home health. I LOVE my job and have done home health for almost 30 years, but I admit that with the recent changes to Oasis with the workload doubled, I am looking to get away from all of the paperwork. My question is two parts and that is first of all, would I be able to find anything given that I have been on probation, and if so, what are some of the well-paying fields whereby maybe I can work remotely without all of the paperwork? I am desperately wishing to at least have time to be able to clean my house! Oh, yes, and, hopefully have a life once in a while!
