One of the day shift leader called me at about 4:30 (they knew I was supposed to start PT today) to see if my weight restriction had been increased. Then tonight our night shift leader calls me desperate for help. At 11pm they go down to 7 nurses. Fully staffed is 10. At 8 nurses we have almost everyone with 5 patients. I don’t think anyone had told Sherren I was on weight restriction. I was willing to come in to work (I’ll need the money). She even called Mary, my manager, at home since she was the one who said I couldn’t work. Sherren said that Mary waffled on it a little, but said she’s just upholding what’s come down from the director. So I’m still on sick leave until I see PT.
