This, unfortunately, seems to be the norm in a lot of places. Retaliation for asking for help or notifying of problems in the system. Update your resume and start looking because the place you are working does not respect you or your work ethic.
I’m in the same boat. I pointed out the dying software system & the chaos, lack of training… but they just protect themselves, don’t care, won’t admit they’re falling apart, saying it must be you….
I googled it online & WOW, former IT saying exactly what I was seeing because they were outsourced. Company had bought the cheapest entry level in another software system which didn’t work, didn’t invest in customization, then returned to their haunted house defunct on life support previous system with the vendor IT in India. New people weren’t familiar with the old system. The people that knew had been let go. Now it’s a nightmare for new nurses trying to learn & use the system. Like knowing which floorboard to avoid because you’ll fall through & crash.
I would look into your States Board of Nursing rules on Staffing issues. Is your hospital been reported for unsafe staffing. What recourse does your Board say you have? Are you unionized? This could be a basis for a strike. I'd also look into what your State laws say. Have others in your state also worked towards better protection for Nurses and Patient Safety? Good luck. One voice could start an avalanche.

I’ve learned management does not care. They may act like it but in the end nothing changes.
