4. New Grad drowning in LTC

   anonomous replied to anonomous's topic in Geriatric

   I think what is overwhelming me the most is trying to take the doctor's orders. I have a lot of difficulty understanding their accents. Plus, when I take telephone orders I can barely hear because of all the bells going off and people talking around ...

5. New Grad drowning in LTC

   anonomous posted a topic in Geriatric

   The reality is, the doctors have been very patient, the CNA's are mostly very competent, and most of my coworkers are friendly and helpful. Despite these facts, I feel completely overwhelmed. There is so many things I don't know. I feel like my schoo...

6. What is the pay rate for a LPN ?

   anonomous replied to janevance66's topic in LPN/LVN

   The worst part of being an LPN is people constantly asking if I want to go back to school. Consider this, in most programs (all I think?) if you fail a nursing course, you are out of the program. Money and time wasted. Why do you want to risk taking ...

7. Should I become a PT or CNA as a new HS grad?

   anonomous replied to ANMpreN's topic in CNA/MA

    anonomous replied to anonomous's topic in Relations

    Our schedules overlap. It's not a traditional nursing setting. She works mornings, I work evenings and we are both there for a few hours in the afternoon.

11. My coworker is stealing

    anonomous replied to anonomous's topic in Relations

    These posts have me even more worried! Now I'm scared my supervisors will think I'm not offering to help this coworker. I'm worried management could think I must be leaving all the work for her. I absolutely offer to help and have even starting askin...

12. My coworker is stealing

    anonomous replied to anonomous's topic in Relations

    As stated in my initial comment, I have no intention of bringing this up to anyone. It would obviously compromise my working environment. The purpose of this post was to vent. I realize my best course of action is to say and do nothing. ALso, it very...

    Yes. She is getting overtime.

14. My coworker is stealing

    anonomous posted a topic in Relations

    My coworker is essentially stealing. She stays nearly an hour late everyday for overtime. This would not be unusual but we work in a setting where staying late is blatantly unnecessary. She has no reason to stay late every day and purposely puts off...
