With a Rebel Yell

 

Update on my entry from the other night about work.  Its seems that the ER Nurse Director absolutely does not want me working in the ER with David (she hates him), so the hospital called my agency yesterday morning and made me a DNR (Do Not Return).  Now wait a minute!  That affects my reputation.  This hospital is the basically the only place I have worked since we moved to AZ and if they are making me a DNR it does not reflect very well on me and my abilities.  My agency jumped on that and said that wasn’t right and that they had better have write-ups and send it to them.  They told the hospital that they had never received any complaints about me; to the contrary they received nothing but compliments.  So to make me a DNR was plain slanderous.

 

Oh…the hospital backtracked a little on that issue and just said they couldn’t let David & I work together anymore.  Well, whatever that means.  They have nothing but made up lies.  No one has ever counseled David or me…. ever.  My agency said that it sounded to them like pure jealousy and hatred, and none of it had any merit.  But…. damage done and I guess I am out of there.  Course I am upset, but what can I do?  I am not an employee of the hospital.  All I can do is move on, unless of course they spread slanderous lies about me.

 

David was very upset and told the ER Medical Director that the hospital was slandering me and that we were thinking about legal action.  He was like…”hold on, all is not said and done on this issue yet”.  We’ll see.  I still don’t believe they will let us work together again.

 

So…tomorrow & Friday I go and try out a new ER.  It is a trauma center.  Here’s hoping that I have a better experience than I did at the last one I tried out.  I’m going to go in with a positive attitude and just do my job.  I’ll let you know how it turns out.

 

Wish me luck!!
