  1. Are all CNAs mean

    I just started a job at a LTC facility and all the CNA's are ****** and rude with down right nasty attitudes. They rolled their eyes when they asked me if I ever worked as a CNA before and I said I was a brand new CNA. I have been running around all ...
  2. Any CNAs who don't plan on going for LPN?

    I am not continuing on to be a LPN or RN. It's just not even a thought really. I just became a CNA and started my first job at a ltc last week. I have 2 kids and a ft job and this is all I can handle!! :)
  3. CNA salary

    PA LTC...11.50 days, +.50 nights and 14.50 weekends.
  4. CNA training online??

    I don't really know how that would work since you need clinical hours. I think an actual class is the way to go...you need that clinical hands on work.
  5. Gossip in the work place!

    If you think it would be easy to get switched weekends-do that!! Then you won't have to deal with them...although eventually they will need your help and then they will be over their attitudes. I feel for ya!! I am hoping when I start my job next wee...
  6. Gossip in the work place!

    My advise to Indiana is to just ignore the comments you have heard or been told. You have proven that you know your job, your willing to learn more, and your a team player who will cover for another. In time the rest won't matter. Good luck!!:)
  7. Things we think that we do not say... humorous...

    While I was doing my clinical for school there was this one resident fella who everyone loved. He was upbeat and with it..and when everyone was nervous about everything...his room was the one to go into and chat since he was so lively!! One day my cl...
  8. I am starting my first CNA position in a week and just wondered what type of shoes seasoned CNA's have used, or do use? I bought Reebok sneakers for training, but wasn't on my feet for 8 hours at a time, so I don't know how they will be. I am in love...
  9. Do any CNA's here work 11-7 in LTC

    Thanks all for your replies. I have been offered a full time 11-7 and have decided that I am going to go for it!!! I am excited & nervous since this is my first CNA position...but feeling positive. I appreciate all your incite into the 11-7 shift...
  10. What skills did YOU get at the CNA state exam?

    I had: weight, transfer to wheelchair using gait belt, fingernail care, range of motion (leg and foot) and of course hand washing.
  11. Everywhere that I have gone tells me they have part time and I can go on a waiting list!! I wonder if this "waiting list" even exists....I need benefits!!!
  12. Guess what i saw today??!

    Wow....I don't see the harm in it either...guess I know now not to post stories here about the strange things that happen when your a CNA!!!!!
  13. How's your experienced as a STNA at HCR manorcare?

    What is a STNA? Is it the same as CNA?
  14. Do any CNA's here work 11-7 in LTC

    I am considering working nights 11-7 and wanted some advice before I make the decision. I do have 2 children (9 & 13) so when it's not summer they would be in school during the day. I am just wondering if you like nights, if your life is out of c...
