Discussion

suspended

a CNA was being extremely inappropriate, I pulled he rinto an empty room so we could discuss things. she started to raise her voice and i raised mine. no cursing was involved and neither of us were yelling by any means. Door was closed. Another CNA reported it to the manager....the manager then listened to both our version and gave us each advice (we were not in the same room during this). manager basically told me that I should have pulled her into a conference room instead of an empty patient room. I questioned which conference room, since our unit does not have any such room or even a break room. she said we should have used the room waaaaayyyyy down the unit. I said that would have been hard to do given I just got hit with 3 admission, but I took full responsibility and walked away with it as a learning experience. 2 hours later she called me at home, we are both being suspended for a day for "inappropriate behaviour", apparently the patient next to that room heard us. I am beyond the panic level since I am thisclose to accepting a transfer, which is probably not going to happen now. I have to get out of there because I am now "ex" with another RN and he is treating me like hell. I am thinking about moving back to "the city" where all of my friends are, but how is a suspension going to look, I ask. man, I am screwed, and I honestly tried doing the "right" thing. this particular CNA is a bully, tries to intimidate. I stood up to her! And the worse part of the night, my ex and her were talking about me behind my back. i dont know how to deal with all this.

The 'ex' or husband involved is a last minute statement that leads more to the story.....

But as it is...removing yourself, as you thought best and being loud enough to be heard by patients is unfortunate. Because in my facility, we have zero tolerance for this and both people are suspended if that becomes the case.

If someone else in another room hears you, you both are acting unprofessionally in your tone of voice,no matter what the circumstances... the patients must be protected from our internal issues at all times.

That being said, in my facility, a suspension will prevent your transfer for 6 months upon where you must correct your behavior before release.

There is more going on here... and it's best left for Maury at home and not where you make a living.
