brookspa Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 ga is a "right to work" state. you can quit for no reason and you can be fired for any or no reason. CEO, PA or NP no matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just_me Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 what? im wondering whats the reasoning behind the question. my feeling is if a person finds themselves continually fired....perhaps they should look inward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LenuPA-c Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 .....Nurses/NP are unionized vs PA none unionized could be part of the reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LenuPA-c Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 I think it easier to fire a PA than an NP as most NP are unionized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chatcat Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 This is yet another reason for solid employment contracts that clearly define the terms should there be termination of employment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roman6163 Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Why is it so easy to fire a PA vs NP? Your question is based on an assumption that is not valid. This is like asking, "Why are Republican men so evil?" or "Why are Democrat women so ugly?" What do you base this assumption on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roman6163 Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 I've had few friends lost there position due to irreconcilable differences with their attending. But then you would have had to have known a few friends who were Nurse Practitioners who kept their jobs under the same circumstances in order to make your question legitimate.

LenuPA-c Posted September 22, 2010 Author Share Posted September 22, 2010 And I've seen some NP who confronted the attending and kept their job as they were protected by union. It's easier to fire a PA vs an NP for the most part. Maybe I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
