Most of you know that I had resigned from my position and should have been starting a new job this week.  In the month since I gave my resignation, the management group, DON and administrator have resigned.  Much negotiation followed and I had decided to stay on as MDS Coordinator.   Well, as of today, I am acting DON.  It was very, very sudden, (DON, Administrator and staffing coordinator all essentially just walked out this am.)  I had decided last night to apply for the job, and was handed keys, pager , phone and staffing book this am.   I DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT BEING A DON!   Anyone out there with DON experience, and if there are current DONs on the list, please email me privately. I have so many questions I don't know where to start.   Thanks in advance.   Holly   Holly F.
