Is there an Entity that assist Nuses who have been fired?Rating: (votes: 0) Your post is very vague for us to help point you in a direction details would need to be filled in. This forum is for nurses who have abused drugs/alcohol and got in trouble with the BON. That is not to say you're not welcome here, but we can not help you if we don't know what you're going through and why. Comment:
Ditto the above post. Surely, you came away from at least one of these situations with constructive criticism that you can use to explore ways to rise above this.

You say that outside life happenings interfered with your ability to do the job. Do you want to be more specific? These things were not able to be separated from work?I'm sorry you are feeling bad and going through a bad patch now.There is usually eap from an employer. I wonder if you can utilize their services at this point. That's the only entity I can think of, other than your MD or PMD( if you have one) to write you out as disabled.They don't say that this job is a soul sucking job for nothing. I question why I went in this profession allthe time.It is easy to get caught up in a person thinking their job defines who they are. Take some time to regroup, rethink things over.(((hugs)))

Life can have a huge impact on your career. If you cannot seperate your home life from your work life things get messy. You can bring stress from work home (my daily problem) or you bring the stress from home into work. You have to find a way to seperate the two or everything suffers. Get some professional mental health, start applying for a new job, and work on making yourself whole in the meantime.

Quote from AltraThis is on the plus side for you. Job hunting with BON baggage is a much, much tougher road. People in all professions get fired, and it is always more difficult to obtain the next job in that situation, but it can be done. It will take patience and a positive attitude.As you are well aware, nursing is a profession which will demand all of best of you: knowledge, skills, judgement, and ability to withstand stress. If circumstances in your life outside of work are impairing your abilities in any of these areas, that will follow you to your next job and set up the same impediments to success.I urge you to use whatever resources are available to you to help your healing process. You mentioned a recent PTSD dx - so that should mean that you are being followed by some healthcare provider, and that's good.Wishing you strength and peace.

PTSD is something difficult to understand for those that are not informed. For many reasons of looking OK and moving about you know there are times when anxiety rears up and you've got no control over these monstrous fears. Most nurses would advice against going inactive or voluntary surrender but demonstrating being proactive in accepting this miserable syn-drone can go a long way for you to get a handle on treatment. Recovering from PTSD is a real beast as few colleagues I know just do not understand this condition and how emotionally painful it can be, you look fine but act crazy. Take some time off.
