Of course there will. It's hard to justify their job (and their paycheck) if they don't find something to whine about.

Somehow the most ignorant are on the Accreditation committee. They find issues that need remediation and have nothing to do with patient care. They do tend to pore over the Policies and Procedures Handbook for hours.
I honestly don’t know how our faculty and deans are supposed to do it all. Teaching full time, being pretty much 24/7 available to students, committees, meetings, research/publishing, plus they are all required to work another job enough hours to maintain their nursing licenses. For very little pay, compared to what they could make in full time practice. |

Yep. I had my fill of teaching and went into independent practice 43 years ago. It is stressful, but always challenging.
Pretty much why they are mostly older and retiring all the time. You do it for a while when full time nursing has gotten to be too physically and emotionally demanding. |

His Royal Hiney
| I bet your school could have hired accreditation consultants - people who even actually wrote the latest set of guidelines. That’s the scam with the FDA / ISO regulations. Bureaucrats revise the standards in such a convoluted way. Then surprise, surprise, when the new regulations become effective, the people who wrote the complicated rules in the first place hire themselves out to help companies navigate the new rules. And their pitch is: “I helped write the rules so I know them.”
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

| You give the 'inspectors' a couple minor infractions to find and list as something to correct and they are then happen and gone.... the more 'perfect' you make things the harder and longer they stay to find something.

goodheart
| I'm truly sorry, Melissa. The EMR requirement by MediCare ended the locum tenens careers of many physicians as they couldn't face learning so many different computer systems. But then a lot of docs just up and retired anyway given the EMR, HIPAA which I hate with a passion, and finally COVID. Fortunately I missed all the COVID crap as I retired finally in 2018, from full-time practice in 2015.
