:redbeatheMy heart is racing as i see someone who holds a position as manager over housekeeping walk toward me to say,"you getting a admit to room......." Then try guestioning me about something related to the admit as if she's educated in my department too.A uneducated housekeeper feeling herself cause its her turn to come to work on the w/e and play manager of the day for four hour.I'm already feeling my task is too much for me to handle then have a housekeeper try to carry out like she my boss with these admit papers:angryfire.But I be nice and except the papers smile and say okay thank you.I know from that time on my w/e will be very hard.But what do I do in A situation like this.And if something isn't completed you get held for doing something wrong.I'm so stressed trying to pass pills,do treatments,talk to familes with concerns,call doctors,transcribe orders for new admit,new admit family want questions answered,fax pharmacy, give prns pain meds it goes on and on.It took me to get three admits before someone came to help me.I work medicare where all the patients are in alot of pain with new surgeries.If it takes her four hours to focus on one admit and nothing else,what make's these people think I can handle all these admits and work the floor.I feel like my license are put on the line working this way.I'm on my feet all day no break and the bad thing is I work w/e doubles.Picture starting work on Sat. morning getting out late on Sat. night like twelve and back bysix am on Sunday same busy non stop day.And little charting /paperwork done cause the work load keep you on the floor.Finally at ten you clearing the med cart tryung to set it up for the night nurse.YOU MAY BE MOSTLY DONE ON THE FLOOR NOW BUT YOU STILL HAVE FOUR HOURS OR MORE PAPERWORK.You finally go home at three or four in the morning:eek:damn!!!!!!!!Almost twenty-four hours.Is this how A nurse have to work?Is these the conditions we have to be under while taking care of people.That's not why I chose to be A nurse,to get another just time enough to swallow pills and go.MONEY look how it even make people not care how other people be treated.How do you become so heartless this way trying to save the company money who can't even put themselves in our shoes or the resudents.they only in to make money.Any DON'S out there???????You suppose to be the nuses on the floor backbone as we your backbone not our enemy and work us in such terrible situations.You yourself wouldn't put up with working this way. guess people do anything for money.Its so sad but it comes back at you cause you cause hurt to people to benefit your own happiness.SOOOOO SAD.AHAHAHAHA FEEL BETTER :loveya:JUST A LITTLE VENTING.
