I'm tired of having to care for 30+ plus residents at a time.
I'm tired of some of most laziest GNAS....
I'm tired of management making the nurses take the blame for everything...
I'm tired of getting interrupted by family members when I'm trying to transcribe orders and pull medications.
I'm tired of feeling that I never gave my best because I didn't have the time.
I'm tired of the outrageous amt. of documentation
I'm tired of having to be a one on one for my demented and confused residents
I'm tired of having to be the maintenence man, dietary aide, GNA and nurse at the same time.
I'm tired of knowing that no matter what I do these residents are not going to get any better and they are there to die.
I'm tired of not having enough energy to enjoy my days off.
Tired of working weekends and holidays.
I'm tired of being tired.
I'm just so freaking tired of LTC!!!!! I am so blessed to have a job and not all days are bad. I just needed to vent and get that off my chest.
Sincerly,
Tired RN
