excellent letter My name was included in the October meeting he made it sound like I was part of the cuuriculum formation which I was not and I remember Ham volunteering to help with the curriculum and as of ourt last MEDDN meeting in July he was never asked so Peter's e-mail is very misleading in the names he puts out their which I am not happy about.

Peter--Thank you for responding to my e-mail---your response is a prime example of the type of communication that is going on---you say that it is "expected" that we would give out the curriculum, yet on Aug 8th, when I came up and picked up this $25.00 masterpiece, Carol told me that the students could not even have up to page 75--that I was to pass out the appendices only, if I wanted to. Now we hear different, after I have sent a full class of angry CRMA's out in to the general public.. When did this unwritten rule get changed, and why weren't we all notified in writing of the change? The prime reason for policies and procedures regarding anything you personally tell us to do with the materials. At any rate, I personally will continue to teach the way I always have---by providing the students with the materials necessary to get refreshed and then tested on it in the afternoon. Some of the students told me that they were writing letters to the editor of several newspapers---that is how desperate they felt!!
Yes you did inform me of the October meeting----I am talking about the committee for writing the manual---just who was on it---you, Donnie and Carol? I did not attend the meeting for a few reasons---one, I had a scheduled class to teach that day and even if I didn't I would have chosen not to come, due to the fact that we were all told to come to the meeting with our concerns written on paper, that they may not be addressed at the meeting, and not to come with negative comments. Why bother attending any meeting that tells you to come, be quiet, don't expect a response and no negative comments? I figured that I would not be able to hold back, and after my brother Tom was a recipient to one of your banging fists on the table saying, "I have the power to shut down anyone in this state", I choose not to subject myself to that kind of immature behavior. My brother was appalled. YOU are supposed to be our leader, the person we can count on for help, and advocate vs. warden of the staff in assisted living-not someone that every administrator has to tip toe around the ego bruising with. Having worked in positions of leadership all of my life, I can't imagine having to constantly deal with the fact that you don't like negative comments, don't like faxes, phone calls and only respond to emails----therefore, I still would like to know who the committe was and when they met?
Thank you in advance for your response,
Betsy
