It was four months I was working as a cna in a facility on 3rd shift, on the Aug 26th,'14. One of my resident pull up her call light and asked to see the nurse, not knowing she wanted to report me on what i did not do, The next day i received a call from DON asking if i could come down immediately that she need to talk to me with administrator, I went down as soon as could,. The administrator was asking me some questions about what happen yesterday, I replied everything went perfect, she asked me how many of my residents were awake when I was taking care of them, i couldn't remember immediately i have to pulse for a while because i had almost 25 residents that I took care of, i mentioned a few, she continue and ask who was the resident I asked her personal information like social security no, I said myself no i never ask such question and I will never ask. She continue and said one of the resident ( not to mention name) said I asked her her SSN at 11.30pm I replied that was capital no. To cut the whole story short I was suspended for that night for pending verification, DON said she going to call me the next day. I received her call the next day asking me to come down and see the administrator that she will not be there due some reasons, I believe she doesn't want to see me going because am one of her best cna she said earlier, I went in there the administrator said " if such thing like this happen its termination" I said so you believe what the resident said was true, She said she do believe her resident even if they lied" she said employee must be terminated if she (the complainant) is not comfortable or any other resident for any employee to work, so I was been terminated because she is not comfortable for me to work in that facility. I said " i have heard and see people who suffered for what they did not do, it now my turn to suffer for what I did not do" she said I mean the administrator "sighed and said I am sorry if you feel like that. Can you just imagine they don't believe their employees but they do believe their residents. My question now is that will I be able to get another CNA job with that bad record? Am sorry for my long story it because I feel so bad and I need to explain everything, thanks everyone for your suggestion may be I will happy if I hear some advice, crying...
