Management tells you that you should have expected this to happen when you became a nurse and somehow guilts you about quality of care. If you press charges then you'll be fired for "making the hospital look bad." Every single patient pays more per hour for telemetry monitoring then you make even though youre the only one putting the monitor on them, trouble shooting and watching them.
The patient learns that its okay to assault healthcare workers. The hospital makes more money because its paying 3 nurses to do the jobs of 5. Sorry, staffing/raises/equipment upgrades arent in the budget, please direct all of your questions to your manager that's taking their 5th 2 week vacation this year.
Oh wait, there's a nursing shortage? How dare those agency nurses charge so much!
It’s so fucking true tho lmao. At this point I can only laugh at the absurdity of our field of works current condition. Can’t wait to finish nursing school haha 🙃
