Has anybody been re hired after beig fired by the same hospital?

1 I ask because I had an extensive illness, which I had to apply for fmla for and take a 2 month leave for. I went back to work because I had to financially, but I was not ready ... so long story short, I took too many days out. Enter a new manager, and I was fired. I had been there for five years, and the new manager was not aware of my situation. My ilness affected me physically as well as psychologically. I have since recovered, or rather , properly treated, and fully able to focus on work. Has anybody, or ever known anybody, who has gone back, explained this, and been re hired? I need advice, I need this job back. Please give any advice you can. Thanks in advance. !!
Contact the facility's Human Resources department/person. They should be able to tell you if you are eligible for re-hire or not. Did they mention anything about you not being re-hired when they fired you? Unfortunately in most areas of the US hospitals have way more applicants than they do jobs, so it may be difficult.I was fired more than a decade ago from a housekeeping job at a hospital, unfortunately it is effecting my ability to be re-hired in that entire hospital system as a nurse when I graduate (and as a tech now). My situation was similar, illness and then injury led to way too many absences during my probation period. The HR person I spoke with told me basically it was a lost cause, since apparently missing a lot of work due to illness and injury is a character flaw, however I was also told that a manager can override that if they really wanted to hire me. So it will be all about making a good impression and connections!
Thank you nurs2b...

Quote from LaRN:***: ugh, sounds like they love drama
I was one of those that was terminated after the same type of thing that you describe, OP. I was rehired even after being labeled as "do not rehire". They actually called and offered me another position. BIG mistake, I was fired again after a few months, by the new DON who was a staff nurse I didn't get along too well when I was there the first time. She was in the middle of her promotion when I came back.Bad idea for me. Good luck to uAnne, RNC
Usually no.......hospitals are pretty clear about that....once they dump you they don't want you back. It reminds them of their bad behavior.
I was after they found out the girl who got me fired was lying. She got fired for lying about me.
I know of many instances in which nurses were hired by companies that had previously terminated them. It all depends upon the reason for the termination. If an individual was terminated "for cause" - performing an action that is absolutely contrary to policy or jeopardizing patient safety.... then, NO... no chance of being hired again. BUT - if the termination was due to an excessive absences (illness, family crisis, etc) or reduction in force (layoff) or conflict with supervisor/insubordination..... the door may re-open in the future. I know of several managers who have been re-hired into management positions after 'regime changes'... the person who terminated them has been replaced.
