  4. Got a nurse aide fired... did I do the right thing?

    I would've talked to her about it first. Maybe you would've found out she had another job, family responsibilities, school, etc...(I've juggled all 3 at the same time & know how exhausting it is)...it's still not an excuse for her not doing her j...

  9. I have a question for all the intj nurses - why do we seem to end up as nurses instead of fields that are more aligned with our interests, personality & natural strengths. I noticed a majority of us are introverted & seem to have interests i...

  11. Crappy orientation

    think it varies from state to state and person to person. I was a nursing assistan since '99 before I became an LPN. I love what I do and wouldn't trade it for nothing in the world. I live in Louisiana and I chose a nursing home to get started just l...

    We are currently in clinicals (at a nursing home) for my nursing assistant class. So far I am enjoying 90% of my experience there (the other 10% from the bad attitudes the cnas give us sometimes). I am still deciding whether to pursue a career in n...
