Thanks again, Corey.
 
And it just keeps getting better. The DON handed her resignation Thursday; it was announced yesterday.  She actually told me Thursday that she was going to, and said, "I know that one of the biggest reasons you are leaving is because of me. Perhaps you won't need to leave now."  So, I really think they just didn't even try to hire someone to replace me, thinking that I would change my mind.  Things are just crazy now. The management company resigned a couple of weeks ago.  The DON has resigned. I think the administrator's days are probably numbered. And I spent an hour on the phone Friday with county council trying to talk me into staying.  My husband won't even discuss it with me.
 
I know what I need to do for me and my family.  The new facility is so  much closer to home. And I can really see the next few months being truly horrible at JFH. It's hard to leave when there is so much chaos and turmoil.  But, I know that I did not create it, and just because I can do the job doesn't necessarily mean that I should.
 
Like I said, I hope these new girls will utilize the resources that I am lining up for them. And hopefully, county council will listen to me and find an experienced RN who will come and lead the LPNs in the office.

You know, Holly, I wish I could add up all the emails, both thru [EMAIL PROTECTED] and private, and print them out, chronologically.  We could then print them out, and send them to every DON and administrator out there.  Think anybody would see themselves?  It's as if the SNF is the embodiment of the old fiefdom in Europe, where the man on top seemed to perceive himself as G-d, and able to order anything.  Of course, the expectation never quite met the actual product. 
 
Good luck.  Hope the next SNF realizes the value they're getting.

Hi, Y'all
 
Just wanted to give some updates on me and my nephew.
 
1st of all, Jacob is doing really well, adjusting to his spica cast. My SIL said that at least the cast makes containment much easier right now. She can just set him down in the middle of the living room, and he can't go anywhere.  (Not that she can stand to even put him down for more than a few minutes right now)   The doctors here are being really supportive and giving her and my brother lots of info and assistance as far as the O.I. goes.
 
2nd.... y'all know that next Friday is my last day. Well, this evening, the DON called as soon as I got in the door, to let me know what is going on.  They have been unable to hire anyone for my position. (Quelle surprise)   So, 2 LPNs who have NO EXPERIENCE OR EXPOSURE TO MDS EVER  are going to be taking over for me. I am to spend next week training them.  You may recall, this is the same DON who told me very snottily, that she didn't think she would have any trouble at all replacing me.  Oh Boy!!
 
Well, I will be giving them the cmdg address, and hope they have sense enough to use it. 
 
Rotsa Ruck.
 
Holly
