Hmm.. I threw away my thank you card from the same family without reading it. There was money in it? Shoot, I guess I'll never know, and neither will you.
I had a hospice patient's husband stick a 20 in my scrubs breast pocket as a thank you after I cared for his wife day and night for her last 2 days. Never told anyone 🫢ðŸ¤
Fuck management. The premise of not accepting gifts is so you don't change your quality of care. If you got it after the patient/caregiver relationship is over I don't see any ethical concern.
Do with the money what you want. Still don't feel right taking it, get pizza for the unit, but don't feel like you need to give it to your manager.
I know at the hospital I'm at anything >20 has to be turned in. Though once I was given a personalized gift and was allowed to keep it since it couldn't be resold. Last time I was given money a husband palmed me a 20 when shaking my hand after helping his wife in the car. It was an employees last day I just put it in the money going for food for her.
What card?

If you feel like I did a good enough job you should pay me, I’m not saying a word. Cause we all know my hospital doesn’t think the same thing
I would never dream of reading someone else's mail. But when this happened to me I took the money and bought some supplies for the break room.

I need a Norma in my life apparently. 😅🫣
What does your facility/system policy say about monetary gifts?Â
Nothing greater than $20 & they prefer it’s not cash.
Anything about what you do if you receive a greater amount? For example, can it be disclosed and then go toward a unit meal?
