   Have you contacted the state about this place? Tell them your concerns.

2. Has a resident/patient ever complained about you?

   rosey200735 replied to futuresctRN's topic in CNA/MA

   OP you said in another post that you have been an aide for 4 months correct, so I am really wondering why you were training someone new in the first place? Training a new people is even hard for a seasoned aide let alone someone who is rather new her...

3. Snotty fellow CNA!

   rosey200735 replied to futuresctRN's topic in CNA/MA

   I agree with what this person said. I would like to add that most aides like this get themselves in trouble in some way. When I first became an aide I thought that I knew everything until I had something bad happen and it brought me back to reality.

4. My First Alzheimers patient and incontinence

   rosey200735 replied to ladybug888today's topic in CNA/MA

   Try taking the resident to the bathroom at least every 2 hours. If you notice him looking like he has to go then direct him to the bathroom if possible. Also get some Geri pads for the chair so if he goes it will not make a mess. It sounds to me like...

5. Adult Family Home vs Skilled Nursing Facility

   Thanks for your reply. I guess I'm worried about the pace as well. I like it when my shift flies by.

6. How long will it take to be hired as a CNA?

   rosey200735 replied to PryingNini's topic in CNA/MA

   I agree with the pp on this topic. In my experience, I had a job when I got out of my training. Were I live CNA jobs are a dime a dozen.

   I have worked in SNF's for many years and wanted to try something different. Anyways, do you think that working in afh is less stressful?

8. No bathroom break for 12 hours straight - A nursing record!

   rosey200735 replied to Brian's topic in Rock

   My work actually tried to enforce no peeing unless you are on on break lol. Sorry but I'm going to use the bathroom when I need it.

9. CNA problems with supervisor

   rosey200735 replied to Hannah93's topic in CNA/MA

   Does the LVN know that you are a brand new aide? I'm sorry to say that most Ltd homes like to treat the newbies like garbage. Hopefully it will get better for you.

10. 20 Patients for 1 CNA??

    rosey200735 replied to Mell101's topic in CNA/MA

    20 residents per evening shift is way too many. Run away from this place and fast

11. I'm venting!

    rosey200735 replied to StanleyNickels's topic in CNA/MA

    I hope that this is for NOC shift to have 20 residents. 20 for days or eve shift is way too many IMO.

    rosey200735 replied to StanleyNickels's topic in CNA/MA

    Wow that's a lot of residents to take care of. I don't usually have that many residents and I feel overwhelmed at times also. Tbh when I'm at work its all about how fast I can get these residents down for the night and for me to go home. I hope that ...

    I found that I can buy name brand scrubs for about the same price as Walmart.

14. those that decline fast

    rosey200735 replied to mvm2's topic in CNA/MA

    I agree with the others that you get used to it. It still hurts to lose a resident but I work in Ltc and have to be there for the others.
