CNA Question

Ok, CNA's tell me how this would be handled. If you are working on the floor and a nurse asks you to put a patient to bed, but you are not assigned to this patient. What would you do?

    Unless you have some immediately-pressing task to do, you put the resident to bed. We are ultimately responsible for ALL residents, not just those on our individual assignments.

    If you are short on time, you can just do the basics to get the person in bed, and then inform their assigned CNA that you put Mr. X to bed, but that you only did such-and-such tasks. He/she can then finish the rest of the cares, such as oral care, when there is more time.

    Thank you. :)

    Yeah, if I had time I would just do everything. If not, just pop him in and change the brief then tell his CNA when you see her that the nurse said to put him in. I wouldn't just blow it off altogether just because he wasn't mine.

    I agree.

    If you don't have time, find their CNA or someone else available. Just do the best you can. All the residents are ultimately your residents.

    Teamwork! :)
