CNA disrespecting new grad.

Nurses New Nurse

Published

I have started about a month ago at a LTC facility. Everyone on day shift and evening shift were great. I get on nights and it's a whole different story. The CNA's sleep and are disrespectful! I asked a CNA the other day to put a patient to bed and she gave me an attitude and said no! I gave her time to cool off and then asked her again which her attitude was even bigger and she told me she would not and if the patient would wake up again she was going to leave her out longer this time. I know this is because I am a new nurse, but how do you deal with these situations the first time? Thanks!

I would write them up! Period...
