Fired rn after 1 mistake in 15yrs and I have a EEOC discrimination pending/fired
I worked 15years w/ hospital and had filed an EEOC complaint because I had been treated differently after revealing to my manager that I needed a certain day off each week for a ADA covered illness. I only worked 4 days per week. I unfortunately made a patient related care mistake with a tpiece. Pt developed pneumothorax and did well after chest tube placed .eventually discharged from hospital. Hospital lied to family and said it was equipment failure when in fact it was an incorrect t-piece. I was fired unexpectantly w/statement of TREND OF MISTAKES
And t-piece. The trend are the EEOC Issue. I am unable to find a job in nursing since 02/14/13
