Beverly Management Wants Right to Terminate RNs Without Recourse
Posted on November 22, 2011
Just Cause means that RNs are entitled to “due process” for any alleged violations. With Just Cause, if an RN is accused of doing something wrong, management must fully investigate. The RN can also fully investigate and present their side of the story. Just Cause also means no disciplinary action against an RN in a manner that doesn’t fit the alleged issue. For example, being terminated for a first offense. Beverly Management wants to be able to terminate or discipline an RN for any reason without following Just Cause.
