I had another new aide yesterday and today. I had to speak to her about leaving the floor without letting me know. I clearly write on the assignment sheet that I am to be informed when someone is leaving the floor. I tell my med cart mate if I need to step off or out for a moment or longer (toilet, lunch, whatever) and I expect the same of my aides. This one took offense, demanding why don't I ask anyone else to do it, how come I'm checking up on her, etc.
I tried to explain but she wasn't interested in my response. I asked the supervisor not to send her back any more. She's a floater so I might get lucky and not have to deal with her any more. Most of the time, she signs up to work but doesn't show, due to not being relieved on her other job. Does she bother to call? I can't figure out why they keep scheduling her. She calls to say she's late but never calls to say she just plain isn't coming. She must have the dirt on somebody.
I'm so sick of people you can't talk to or reason with or say anything to, however nicely, however legitimate.
