I need your advice. I'm retaking a CNA class because I let mine lapse. I found a 7-week class for $1500.00. I'm now 6 days away from completing and I can't even get up in the mornings to attend.
Anyway, I've noticed the instructor picks on me and two other students. She makes us be an task every minute. The rest of the students get to take off from the clinicals site, and return whenever they feel like. They haven't practice any of the skills at all. But! We have to.
With my 8 years of experience as a CNA , I know all the skills. The instructor constantly checks on me. If I leave the room to get sheets, or anything, she yells at me infront of everybody.
The other day, she had two of the students whom never do anything there, do vitals, and the other change a bed.
The student doing vitals put in an elec. thermometer without a plastic cover in a pt's mouth. The other one doing the bed, couldn't do a drawsheet and walked out the pt's room with her gloves on to get the instructor to do it for her. In five days they will be graduating!
Well, to make the story short, I've been absent for the last two days with a strong migrane headache. I can't sleep because I know, I have to see the instructor the next day. I won't be able to get my certificate with the rest of the lazy students because I now have to make up the hours. Should I report the instructor?
I don't really want to because she was really nice in the begining. I had a deep cut on a finger and she was cleaning it every day with a lot of care. I just don't know what to do?
