What would you do if....

You worked for a large facility with 4 group homes of intellectually disabled adults dispersed throughout a large city, entered one to assess clients and other nursing tasks....found an unidentifiable ( no scoring, no letters or numbers) tablet laying under a pile of papers in the med room. Checked it against all tabs in med room with no match....written up for not filing out a "medication error report."

Some states do ask you when you renew your license if you have received any disciplinary action or have been fired since your last renewel. If so, they ask you to document why. So I can understand some anxiety related to them. I've been written up once in my career. It wasn't deserved, but I documented my disagreement and moved on.

I can't say that I would quit a job without having another one lined up, but then again not everyone has to work to support their family.

There were many possibilities that being one. No one came forward

Written up or constructive debriefing....I think there is a big difference. Taking an ambiguous scenario and trying to resolve it by blame gives no one a chance to learn. Its like saying found a tablet on the med counter equals medication error. It makes no sense for me. There's more to investigate. I am proud that I voted with my feet after trying to understand the irrational.
