I think I'm being punished.

I'm the only floor RN at this nursing home. The ADON will work the floor from time to time but most always it is me.

They have decided I need to be the one to start training new orientees.

I would rather clean all the bathrooms with my tongue than train new orientees. Just thinking about it makes my stomach hurt.

I guess I'll be down at the employment office soon. Until then, I will have to start training new orientees. I have had to train a couple already (we seem to be having a high turnover lately) and I don't know if I'm going about it the right way, but I start off with pulling up the meds and letting the new nurse give them to get her aquainted with who people are. After awhile, I start letting her pull the meds and I just assist her until she gets the hang of it.

I just hate doing this, though. I hate it so bad I can't stand it.
