Taking away chairs from nursing station

[pinkessence_58467]

I work at a nursing home and is my night off and I just got word that administrator has taking away our chairs from the nurses station to get us to work harder. There has been lack of documentation in all units. People think he did this because a power trip. The administrator is only 24 and he is new and he's ****** a few people off. I think it gonna cause a lot of conflict but if people accept this change, it could be a positive change. I have charted standing and it's taken less time to chart. Less time charting means more time supervising and more time at patients bedside which overall will improve patient care. I totally get it but I will take some time adjusting.

Before I got in nursing, the few jobs I worked prior required standing. I don't view it as cruel. Lots of jobs require standing. The cna stand on there feet all the time, so why can't we.

I'm a CNA on a busy pediatric floor and I sit at the computer to chart several times a day.
