Walking off in the middle of report?

[BlearnRN]

I am soo annoyed! This is the second time this one nurse has done this. If I tell her I don't know something off the top of my head, (like what meds the pt is on) she will get up in the middle of report and say " I am going to go check the chart"...and then she will go and get up and check the chart. Even after I said I can look it up in the computer. What the ? So I go over after her and tell her that I have the information on the computer...she says not to worry about it....then I say well are we done then?...and she says yes... She keeps doing these type of weird passive aggressive things like this and pretends it is not a big deal. But then, the next day I will find out that that is all she could talk about for the rest of the night.

i've received problematic reports a few times in 11 yrs.

if i personally cannot nip it in the bud, i calmly tell the nurse that report is officially over.

then i sit at the desk until i can give/get report from/to the desk nurse.

this never goes down well.

but ea time, it has worked out to my benefit (and any other potential victims).

if a desk nurse isn't available, then i'll go up the chain.

of course, everyone wants to know why and what is going on.

problems don't seem to linger where i work, lol.
