What to do??

I am a nurse who works in a small hopice center. We have 20 beds so we can have 20 patients at a time. We are usually staffed with 3-4 RNs and 2-4 CNAs. Recently our director, not a medical person, has deceided to bring some LPNs in to the center because of cost. Our issues are this as RNs we can do a lot, LPNs have restrictions espicially when it comes to IV meds. They can not do them. So what that means is I as the RN would have to do all my patient care and give IV meds to the LPNs patient. Somehow that does not seem fair to me. What do you think?
When we started we said we would be staffed with only RNs now we have this going on. I know I sound like I am just whining but, this person they hired has been stirring things up also. SO not only do we have the first issue now we have this person (LPN) who is causing a comotion where there was none. We were working fine together and now she has stirred up some s&^%^#@#@, if you know what I mean. I am going to go for now I will write more later.

Why is there always someone at work to cause trouble???

Why is it that where ever you work or what ever you do there is always someone who has to be a trouble maker? I am an RN in a hospice center, I have worked the night shift here for a few months full time weekends. Recently a LPN has come to work nights with us because she did not like the day shift nurses who she says treated her badly. She has been on our shifts for about a month. Last week I asked if I could work a day or two before I am scheduled to go on vacation. The person incharge of the schedule told me to take her day because it was overtime for her it would not be for me since I was going on vacation that week. I got a call last night from one of my coworkers saying she (the lpn) had changed the day and also had some stuff to say about me. Something to the fact of she has been watching me and the days I have worked. I could scream!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
What business is it of anyone when and where I work and who does this person think she is talking trash about me behind my back!!!!!!
It never seems to fail when you think things are going good there is always someone to try to mess it up. Ya know! Just needed to vent that. I feel better now.

Hello Its Tuesday July 17,2007
Hello Its Tuesday July 17,2007 Tuesday the first real day of my week. I work weekends as a nurse on the night shift, so Monday is mostly a blurr for me. Anyhow how am I today? I am good. My mom and grandmother are now on their way back home to Pgh, PA to tie up loose ends and then they will move back here with me. I was sad this morning because my grandmother was crying. She thinks she is going home to go into a nursing home because my mom is retiring and moving here. I assured her she wil be back on my porch in a couple weeks. She said "OK". But some how I think she still has the nursing home thought in her mind. Why you may ask. Well some of they family who live up there are raising cane about her moving. Here is my problem. I live 800 miles away in SC and I see her more than some of those who live up there. Thry say they miss her yet haven't seen her since Christmas so they can miss her just as much if she is here and happy with me and my mom.I just had to share those thoughts. I'll share more later
