T1 Grievances: What are best practices for grievances? When should nurses go public?How should they proceed? Any examples? #RNchat2/19/2010 21:06
rnchat:
@KaitlynAliano Cloudy with a chance of meatballs #RNchat2/19/2010 21:07
heychrissmith:
T1 Phil, define grievances? You mean work-related issues? #RNchat2/19/2010 21:08
EllenRichter:
LMAO @Kineticycle 200th?? Do I get a prize (hopefully yes!) :) My pleasure following afellow nurse! #RNchat2/19/2010 21:08

RT @rnchat: T1 - What are best practices for grievances? When should nurses gopublic? How should they proceed? Any examples? #RNchat2/19/2010 21:09
KaitlynAliano:
#rnchat T1 grievence? Is this union related or just a "concern" in general? Not sure Iunderstand the scope of the Q?2/19/2010 21:10
Kineticycle:
T1 To get any real headway with a grievance, you must follow the correct chain ofcommand. "Going public?" Not sure what that means #RNchat2/19/2010 21:10
EllenRichter:
#RNChat Aw, hi gang! Can't really participate as I'm working tonite (& it's crazy) but willbe following along when I can. Cheers!2/19/2010 21:11
holisticnurses:
@Kineticycle gives the nurse protection/recourse #rnchat2/19/2010 21:12
ali_rn:
T1 is honesty the best policy? Leave it to the hospital to decide. Clearing your consciencedoesn't always benefit the masses #rnchat2/19/2010 21:12
NurseSylvia11:
T1 Many companies have a grievance committee that includes RNs & administrators whotry to resolve a grievance behind closed doors #RNchat2/19/2010 21:12
EllenRichter:
T1 @ali_rn Remember, not every hospital/facility has a union! :) #RNchat2/19/2010 21:13
EllenRichter:
@EllenRichter Do nurses in FL have unconditional protection when "speaking out" afterfollowing chain of command? In TX it seems no #RNchat2/19/2010 21:14
yvette2012:
@holisticnurses Hi! Sorry you cant partake! Dont work too hard! :) #RNchat2/19/2010 21:14
EllenRichter:
@EllenRichter very true...but i have only worked in one that does!! skews my view iguess! #RNchat2/19/2010 21:15
ali_rn:
T1 @yvette2012 No one has unconditional protection anywhere! We must always play bythe rules if we want protection. #RNchat2/19/2010 21:15
EllenRichter:
T1 @kineticycle Many times the grievance has nothing to do with patient care. But its stillan issue needing resolution! #RNchat2/19/2010 21:16
EllenRichter:
@EllenRichter good points about protection and grievance/pt care #RNchat2/19/2010 21:18
ali_rn:
#rnchat T1 if a grievance is to have a + impact, it must have a willing champion to "fix"the wrong. It's all in the approach to build trust2/19/2010 21:18
Kineticycle:
T1 @ali_rn I have worked in both union hospitals & non-union ones. Good/bad for eachtype. A supportive administration always helps #RNchat2/19/2010 21:18
EllenRichter:
As a complete new-comer, message I'm getting is: don't speak out, b/c even when youDO follow the rules, you can get into a mess #RNchat2/19/2010 21:19
yvette2012:
#RNchat~ Sorry, I'm late but here:)2/19/2010 21:19
PamelaKline:
@Kineticycle that isn't exactly how it work where i work- a nurse will recieve pay for otshe should have gotten, stuff like that, #rnchat2/19/2010 21:21
ali_rn:
@Kineticycle have not seen it lead to actual policy change #rnchat2/19/2010 21:21
ali_rn:
T1 @yvette2012 When a nurse feels there was injustice or wrong-doing, theres no Xcusefor silence. There R tactics for effectiveness #RNchat2/19/2010 21:21
EllenRichter:
@PamelaKline Welcome! We'll start the second topic in a few moments. #RNchat2/19/2010 21:21

#rnchat T1 RNs must speak out, they just can't "whine about everything". Be focused, IDthe cause and suggest solutions = best chance.2/19/2010 21:22

Lot of great views here on grievances. Second topic coming up! #RNchat2/19/2010 21:22

T2 Pharmaceutical Industry: Is Pharma sufficiently supportive of nursing? How shouldthey be involved? What can they do for us? #RNchat2/19/2010 21:24
rnchat:
I'm just *perplexed". What did the TX nurse do wrong? She's paying a hefty price forspeaking her mind about what was right. #RNchat2/19/2010 21:24
yvette2012:
T1 Yessss...@kineticycle GREAT point about having some ideas for a solution! Thats aplus & can really help resolve things. #RNchat2/19/2010 21:24

KaitlynAliano:
@yvette2012 Texas nurse issue compounded by a very small hospital, small town, theMD & the sheriff had a relationship. #RNchat2/19/2010 21:26
EllenRichter:
And many nurses have come together bc of that! RT @yvette2012 I'm just *perplexed".What did the TX nurse do wrong? #RNchat2/19/2010 21:26
holisticnurses:
@yvette2012 We all are. It was the most bizarre case ever. Just bizarre. #RNchat2/19/2010 21:27
philbaumann:
@yvette2012 I agree with you Yvette. She did nothing wrong. #RNchat2/19/2010 21:27
PamelaKline:
#rnchat T2 if Pharma were supportive of nursing they would: use larger print, name medsless alike, make doses easier 2 deliver (no cutting)2/19/2010 21:28
Kineticycle:
T2 One big beef with the whole pharmaceutical industry is the complexity of all thedifferent names for each drug! Makes it so hard! #RNchat2/19/2010 21:28
EllenRichter:
Agreed! RT @philbaumann @yvette2012 We all are. It was the most bizarre case ever.Just bizarre. #RNchat2/19/2010 21:29
holisticnurses:
@holisticnurses, yes. One of the best things to come out of the case; a strengthenedsense of community & fellowship among nurses. #RNchat2/19/2010 21:29
KaitlynAliano:
T2 Each drug should just have a generic name!! Not 15 different trade names for eachcompany! #RNchat2/19/2010 21:29
EllenRichter:

T2 The patients get so confused. They call a med one name, nurse calls it another, MDwrites it under a 3rd name! #RNchat2/19/2010 21:30
EllenRichter:
A great point by @EllenRichter - what can Pharma do with respect to med naming? Anysuggestions or is it just hopeless? #RNchat2/19/2010 21:31

EllenRichter:
But then, I don't want their job either #RNchat2/19/2010 21:34

@maryannagordon welcome!!! #RNchat2/19/2010 21:35
PamelaKline:
T3 I know when I crush up 15 pills for an NG tube, much of those drugs never dissolvewell & doses are not 100% instilled #RNchat2/19/2010 21:35
EllenRichter:
I'll agree w/ general confusion with the complexity of the naming system, my studentshave much difficulty learning all permutations #RNCHAT2/19/2010 21:36
maryannagordon:
people cannot afford meds, and i'm throwing away perfectly good ones, every hour!#rnchat2/19/2010 21:36

#rnchat T2 simplify med dosing, standardize concentrations, improve labeling so it can beread, sponsor RN education, not just doc vacations2/19/2010 21:36
Kineticycle:
T3 @ali_rn I cant agree more! I hate wasting narcotics just because the pharmacy hasonly one dose available!! Sometimes every hour~ #RNchat2/19/2010 21:37
