Lack of accountability and transparency - Recensione dipendente - RN Staff Nurse presso OU Health

Med-Surg floor/5:1 ratio too high, not nearly enough techs and the patients all require a high level of care. Accu checks on almost every patent AC and HS with many max assist patients is absolutely impossible to pass meds on time, chart CORRECTLY and PROVIDE QUALITY care. I feel so sorry for the patients. I was not able to provide the care I am very capable of because I was always forced to cut corners and make compromises in care. Also, certain areas require you to wear a TRACKING DEVICE! They tell you it is to monitor hand washing.hah! The device looks NOTHING like the small devices that are designed specifically for hand washing and do not work that way. The ones OU have monitor every movement and tell exactly where you are every minute..5 minutes here, 3 minutes here...the secretary informed me that I had been in the break room for longer than 7 minutes and accused me of trying to take a second lunch! Then when I was on lunch, (which you must CLOCK OUT FOR 30 MINUTE LUNCHES, ), the manager was able to find me on my lunch break in a quite place working on my homework ! I believe where I am on my lunch break is MY BUSINESS as long as follows hospital policy. That was the final straw...I went and hid the device behind a trash can and quit.
