Hi all
I am very upset so I'm sorry.😢
Yesterday I had to resign from my nhs job role. Work were not understanding the fact I have 2 children under 16 that have medical needs. I had meetings upon meetings with the nursing director and still I couldn't get anywhere with him.
I told him I'm a single parent to 2 vulnerable children and all I was told was "why can't they go to school"- my answer was "because I live 45 min away, I don't drive, I rely on public transport. Then I was asked "why can't family members look after them" - my answer was haven't you heard the guidelines. I cannot take them to my dads because he has I'll health, I don't speak with my mum and further more there dad is also isolating because he has covid" nursing director then said to me it was my problem and I need to sort it out and find childcare because he expects me back to work doing my contracted hours )bearing in mind they are 12 hour shifts)..I've contacted my GP and they only told me to go on gov website which I done like 10 times and filled in the form for shielding.
Before all this lockdown and coronavirus I had every planned out, childcare was in place, everything. Now I had to resign from a job that I adore and love.
I'm sorry if I'm going on I'm so upset.
Did I do the right thing.
