I have been a nurse for over five years, working in office settings. I've had my share of tough workplace experiences to say the least. Finally about 1.5 months ago I was hired at a corporate sports medicine/ orthopedic practice, and placed with a really awesome doctor, our personalities have jived so well and I have enjoyed going to work every day. We have become an excellent team, and all of my coworkers see it.
Only issue -- his nurse that he had before me, has been on medical leave and she is returning. And I was just told this yesterday and now tomorrow is my last day working with him. He is just as upset as I am! We both tried going to the higher ups and asking for me to stay but they said they didn't want to ruffle any feathers with the returning employee. The doctor even said he wishes I could be his full time nurse.
I am actually quite heart broken. Finally after over 5 years I felt I found my niche. I have been so happy and it's been showing in my private life as well.
they now assigned me to work with a new pain management doctor, to say the least I am not excited. Pain management really isn't something I'm interested in working, plus I will have to travel further for work.
Any ideas? Support?
