What was she thinking???

I just got off the phone with a friend and she was telling me about a co-worker who recently was caught forging a charge nurse's signature! :no: I don't know too many details, but it had something to do with her trying to cover up an error the following day. I'm baffled by this! Has anyone else ever encountered anything like this? What did your hospital do? I am just completely flabbergasted!!!

That is illegal and it is falsifying a patients record and she should be fired. I'm sorry if that sounds harsh but it's the truth.

Wow! Really wondering what this person was thinking or rather NOT thinking. I have never wanted to forage another persons signature. I agree she should be fired.

forgery...falsifying a legal document.....fraud...intent to deceive....malicious intent....

Looks like her license just became disposable.

Looks like her license just became disposable.

Plus, she could potentially be criminally charged with fraud. I don't know how likely that is though.

:banghead: Not only is it fraud (and just plain dumb) - but she should lose her license - that is unacceptable. We hold ourselves to higher standards than that. Nurses must maintain that reputation and respect if we are to keep moving forward.

Umm....wow - that's insane. :no:

At my previous workplace, my ADON (assistant director of nurses) used to forge my signature all the time. It's needless to say that I no longer am an employee of that particular facility.

Plus, she could potentially be criminally charged with fraud. I don't know how likely that is though.

The first three things I wrote are criminal charges: forgery, falsifying a legal document, fraud. The last two are what make them so easy to prosecute.

i know of 2 nurses who merely changed the time of an assessment done the previous day and they were fired on the spot.

:eek:

oh wow......
