False Accusations
What is the name of your state? NC
I am a cna an work the night shift in an assisted liveing facality. Today i answered the phone to have my boss telling me a pt has accused me of slapping her. I have never touched a pt . i had gone into her room twice to try to get her out of bed pulling her covers off explaing it was time to get up an moved the pillow from under her leggs. both times she started verbal abuse i left the room after the second time an never returned. I had at no point touched her in anyway shape or form. i have been suspended for 3 days while they invistgate. there were no marks on her an she kept telling them not to fire me. when they asked why no mark she replied i slaped her softly. i told them i would be glad to take a poly test . both times i was in her room all lights were on an her door was wide open. my question is what should i do from here an if i am found innocent should i return to work if im found guilty they will take my lic for something i havent done, what should my actions be from this point?
