Terming Appropriate? 🤔
Hey all, let’s talk about a sticky situation I’m facing at the clinic. Pam gave the wrong vaccination to a child, and Sally tried to cover it up by deleting the record. The question now is, should both of them be termed?
Here are the facts:
- Pam knew she messed up, but didn’t report it to her supervisor
- Sally tried to delete the record to cover up the mistake
- Pam had a similar incident a month ago and received additional training
Do you think Pam should get a final warning or be terminated like Sally? 🤷♀️ Would love to hear your thoughts on this tough decision.
Possible Solution:
- Considering Pam’s history of mistakes and failure to report this incident, along with the severity of the situation, it may be safer to go ahead with termination for both Pam and Sally to ensure patient safety and maintain the clinic’s integrity.

Pam is a patient death waiting to happen.
**Terminate today.** 🤦♂️
Goodbye.
>She also had a similar accident happen a month ago where she gave the incorrect vaccination.
term her NOW….
Yeeeeesh this reminds me of a nurse that essentially stated that mistakes are inevitable in nursing and you take the risk of potentially dying when you seek healthcare.
I am very glad that I do not work in healthcare as HR.
Healthcare HR here – it’s the cover up that’s really egregious. For me, that’s what pushes both to a term. Pam goofed and didn’t own up to it and the ‘I’ll take care of it’ with the biller is questionable enough…but two incorrect vaccines in a month after some remediation? Oof.
And Sally Deletes-a-lot? Heck no.
Keep that head up, internet friend. You got this.
I’m amazed that you’re even asking this question.
Term immediatley!! Do you want to give her another chance to kill someone?????
First time she got a warning. Second time I think termination is warranted.
