Well they are way over budget so they are cutting everyone's hours and they are putting me back on second shift. I will still be fulltime but I can't get any overtime. But I won't have my easy job anymore. But the good thing is I will get my shift differential back. Its kind of a catch 22. I talked to my main boss and she said that she would be putting me back on the easy hall though. So atleast that's good. I don't mind working but I don't need the stress of the other hall it was driving me nuts. And atleast I won't be held responsible for what other people are giving one of our ladies that are on fluid restrictions. Which they had told me they were going to put on me. And I threw a fit about that because I didn't think it was right for them to write me up for stuff that happens when I am not there. Well anyway I guess I was meant to be on second shift for a while. I told her once college starts, hopefully next fall, that I would probably have to do something else and she said she could put me on second shift. But I might see if I can just work weekends when that time comes.

Sorry, I don't do a good job of keeping up with who has what career etc, but clearly you do something medical. I would have a VERY hard time if errors were being made in care of a patient, and I sure wouldn't take the blame for what was not my mistake!

Can you discuss this with anyone? Bottom line, that patient deserves to not have poor care.

I know how much it changes ones life when shifts change, and hope you'll get back to the shift you want in the near future.

She is on fluid restricktions and she is only supposed to get a certain amount a day and she can't get no less or no more than that. And I was asked why she was getting more and I showed her were I was giving her the amount I was supposed to but the others weren't doing what they were supposed to. And she said she was putting it on me but I am not there 24 hours a day I am not even there at supper time so I can't control what she drinks at that time so I told her she needed to tell the all of the staff at the same time to make sure and watch how much she is drinking but they aren't and I don't think it is my fault if I am doing what I am supposed to do.
