Nurses Unite!!! Speak Up about needed changes in our workplace.

About Me

We are nurses who work at NHRMC. We are sick of having to listen to all the MAGNET CRAP. What is Magnet anyway??? 1-Oodles of huge bucks that should have been given us give to some organization that sticks a label on us. 2-Something to attract RNs to choose a magnet hospital vs another. Give us a break, there is no competion. What a waste of money. Besides even with the magnet garbage being pushed on us, we all know 2-4 nurses who have left because: TOP TEN REASONS FOR LEAVING NH NETWORK: 10-Managers push pencils instead of a wheelchair or stretchers to help out. 9-Too many meetings not enough bedside care. 8-Uniform policy-Get a life this the 2000's. Buy our uniforms if you want to delegate what we wear. 7-Nurse patient ratio UNSAFE 6-When was the last time a nursing director or manager touched a patient? Worked after 5pm? 5-Service Excellence is a joke & the lead clown is the CEO. Round Jack round, clean your ears 4-WE CAN'T CARE FOR OUR COMMUNITY. FOR GODSAKES STOP BRINGING THEM IN FROM BUMPHUK. 3-Wages, benefits & bonuses behind the times. How bout acting Magnet if you want to attract good nurses, set the rates HIGHER than the rest. 2-Off site parking 1-Too much focus on education & advancing away from the bedside.

My Interests

Can you say NURSES UNION? Maybe it's time. Look at California.

I'd like to meet:

A CEO that is bold enough to grab the bull by the horns and correct the balance. A DON that insists that anyone with RN behind their name invest one day of their work week EVERY week caring for patients in their unit. That'll make a difference. A VP of Finance that requires accountabilty of all RN managers regarding their time. They are tardy, leave early, leave units short, take off when they want to, and are overpaid.

Music:

How bout it? With all the technology we have our waiting areas have none...

Movies:

All the Presidents Men.... There's too many at the top, too much talk, propaganda & BS. Get down to basics, get rid of big titles & raise the worker bee wages.

Television:

Grays Anatomy...It's all about the digestive system. Feed us enough bleeping junk, in the end, it's all flushed out. Wake up NH. Our community has no alternative, Service Excellence is for regions with thick competition. What a waste of time, money & jobs.

Books:

PDR...When a med is given & there is an adverse reaction, every good RN know what to do to reverse it. Too bad that admins can't practice in the same way.

Heroes:

PPD, Brunswick, Docters Offices, Home Health, Columbus. They all have better policies, pay & benefits.

Come on now. Do Something. The NC Board of Nursing says we don't have to take the next patient if we feel we can't give him/her appropriate care. Let's insist that all the pencil pushing, key tapping...
