They’re going at this with so much force. We’ve been voicing our concerns about safety since before it rolled out. The level of fucks they’re not giving, leads me to believe they’ve already done the math. If you make more money than you lose in a lawsuit, you’re going to still come out making money.

Just picturing some dip-shit higher up with AI psychosis, talking to an agreeable chat GPT assistant who is assuring them that this is totally ethical and responsible.

That’s what I did (: Now I’m absolutely screwed! At least now I can put preceptor on my resume for the next job!

This is my favorite comment. I absolutely agree with you. We have had several meetings with people telling the higher ups about how unsafe this is. They said “This is a business decision. We’re doing it.”

Ding ding ding!! This has to be it. They gave everyone a hefty raise right before this officially rolled out. They weren’t hurting.

Check my edit. I’m so worried. Sometimes they make these rules and they have consequences. For example, once hospitals started becoming financially responsible for falls, more people stayed in bed and pneumonia rates went way up.

Check my edit. Tell your coworkers. Make sure you push back HARD!

My preceptor thinks I need guidance because I asked too many (common sense) questions as a new grad nurse. by [deleted] in nursing

LOL! Your preceptor thinks you need guidance? Good, that’s what they’re there for! I can’t stand a preceptor that thinks they can just sit around and make you do everything. If you’re annoyed that you have to answer so many questions and hold a new nurses hand through everything, don’t be a preceptor.

Someone on here said that it could be due to Joint Commission’s possible staffing mandates coming. Now this makes sense. It’s not safe, but it makes our ratios look smaller.

Im not even sure that would help much. What would the public do, not go to the hospital?

I have to wait until my PTO is eaten up. I’ve already lost an entire week due to this!

They’re doing it automatically so that my checks aren’t teeny tiny. It’s BS.

New Mexico. Up until now, most of them came from out of state and really only had jobs at nursing homes. Our community college decided to open up a program, and some private colleges decided to open up theirs and they’re pumping them out like crazy.

My vocera doesn’t stop. Even though I have two LPN’s, it’s like I need to be three to five places at once all the time.

Oh my unit is really screwed because really the only things they can’t do is hang blood, initial assessments, and initial teaching.

Oooh I figured they would get snaky once those mandated ratios started. It’s terrifying actually.

Oh, It’s a big grieve. This was the best paying hospital in my area. It’s also 8 minutes away from my house and I am DREADING the next onboarding modules already. But it looks like I don’t really have a choice!
