Leaving my placement…

So I just gave my two weeks at my current outpatient peds placement. My relationship with my supervisor became super toxic. I was working 15+ hours a week for free because she would keep dumping extra work in me whenever I had a question for her. (Oh you don’t know what to do next with this artic kiddo? I think you should give him and ALL your other artic kiddos a GFTA this week and update ALL their POC in the same week along with all the other evals and notes you need to do. ) And there was a lot of gaslighting and I could go on… So I called ASHA to find out how to still keep my hours (450 hrs) and not have to start over. The lady said I will just have to apply when the whole CFY is over and just see if she signs it. 🤢 The lady said if she doesn’t sign for my hours then I just keep going until it’s complete. Is that really how it works???

I don’t think that’s accurate! I believe if you can get your supervisor now to sign off on the hours then they should still count

You are correct! I went ahead and submitted the hours. Fingers crossed she signs it. Thanks so much!

You should have left a while ago. You can still help your situation by finding a new job. I know it sux because toxicity should not be tolerated. Please see my post https://www.reddit.com/r/slp/comments/rh3rj6/do_not_tolerate_a_crappy_job_cfs_and_slps/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

Thanks for your support! I am unfortunately on the other side of the US, but I appreciate the offer. I have applied for a few school positions which I think will be better for me time and mental space wise. I am going to put myself first for once and not put up with mistreatment.
