Seeking Advice

[OneLight]

Speak to a lawyer.  They are the only ones that can point you in the right direction.  It's obvious you really don't what to tell us what the violations are, so nobody can offer you true advice.

Thank you all for your advice. It seems the matter has been addressed with the company and they have let the individual go. I hope this person learns that we are to follow worldly authorities just as God’s authority. Thank you all again!

Good morning all!

So I have a situation where I am seeking advice on what I should do.

I previously left my job position within a prestigious hospital because of my superiors violating federal laws and committing acts of abuse of power, according to the hospital’s own policies.

Once I left, I felt I needed to notify someone within the hospital that could address these issues as I still am concerned for fellow coworkers and friends of mine that work there. So I did submit a report to the compliance organization within this hospital. At first there seemed to be interest in my report but now I feel there may be cover up going on, as now the organization has prevented me from submitting additional information to Aid in addressing my report.

Now my dilemma is, I feel the compliance organization may be covering up as it is still affiliated with the hospital. The matters that need to be addressed are serious on Federal level of law, as it violates the law, on the flip side I wouldn’t want my actions to pursue these matters to cause retaliation against my former colleagues and friends. Yet, I feel within myself it isn’t right to just let the hospital cover things up.

I try and out weigh one action to the next and the pros and cons list of both keep growing.

For instance:

if I allow the matter to just be and no further push, then my friends and coworkers will still be subjected to the abuse of their management and patients are also subject to further wrongdoing.

however if I push further, some coworkers And friends will be exposed and while trying to correct, they will be subjected to retaliation from their management or hospital all together (like lose their jobs). Now these are the good employees who rights are being violated. Also I must admit I fear that this may fall back on me, as being a whistle blower is frowned upon and can prevent me from finding employment elsewhere.

Part of me feels I should play it safe and some have told me just let it be, because it would hurt me and others and I should worry about how it affects me 1st.

Yet even when I try and adapt this mentality of some form of self preservation, let it be. There is something inside of me that feels I should not remain silent. Then when I feel like I should push forward with what is right, I am then discouraged because pushing forward would definitely expose my friends (good people) to them facing retaliation and them losing there jobs and careers.

So I am just as confused as my explanation here seems.

I am lost on what I should do. Either way people get hurt, either way I will cause harm. 
Either way people can be affected in the long term of their lives. 
 

I have asked God but the answer still isn’t clear to me. This is why I am seeking advice, in hopes to receive confirmation in responses.

I hope I explained this well enough for you all to understand, and I appreciate any advice.

Thank you,

 

 

Do what you think is right, and ask for guidance from the pastor.
