Example: several of my former coworkers are from Mexico, Peru and Argentina, meaning they share Spanish as a common language.

I used to practice Spanish with them, but my last charge (like a ward’s manager) would yell at us to stop it, use English only. She would get very angry really fast if she heard anything in a language she didn’t understand.

I find it stupid, because some of them would use Spanish to better explain to the new nurses how to do certain procedures, but maybe I’m missing something?

    This is completely ridiculous and also illegal where I live

    If the idiot boss is too insecure with herself she can’t bear not understanding a language then she is free to learn that language. Especially if it is Spanish in the USA, which is very widely spoken. Learning it is just common sense.
