HartfordSPN, LPN, LVN · Nov 28, 2009

no she did not..

did 2 no calls no shows for clinical during a single rotation (not back to back i should add)(received a warning for each of them) and asked the instructor during post conference how many times she can do this before she gets kicked out of the program......

no he did not..

just lied and said he gave the patient a bed bath and the patient's bath pan was there dry with paper towel stucked to the bottom of the inside. should i add that the patient was a+o x 3 and said "no you did not".

No she did not crush up a pill, attempt to dissolve it in water and then inject it IV. This student wasn't in our class, but our lab coordinator threatened us if we ever did this.

I don't remember if I put this before or not,

No she did not tell the student nurse she can take a BP around the patients neck since the SN couldnt get it from the frail little elderly womans arm.

A CNA at the nursing home told this to one of the NS!

No she did not complete a head to toe assessment, hand it in to the instructor and then could not answer why she should be worried about chest pain and respiration rate of 34...

(I think I was more pleased than shocked though...she walks around like a big shot during our first clinical and then tells us that we are stupid for being nervous. Karma anyone?)

OMG I love this thread! Ok, since I think being able to laugh at one's self is important, I'll put up my brainfarts before those of ther people. Here goes..........She did not........ask a pt. who broke tons of bones jumping from her second story window when her house caught fire how her day was. :crying2: She did not drink from the stupid fountain that she later found out residents urinate and spit in her first day as a CNA. She did not screw up a subq injection by giving it slowly and intradermally(the next ten were perfect btw). Ok, time for the thank God it WASN't me ones: he did not eat a patient's food as state walked past with the door wide open. She did not let a resident choke because he's not her patient! She did not sit up a pt. while doing post mortem care and turn them into a puppet. She could not have seriously come to work reeking of alcohol and napped at the nurses station. She did not leave all those alarms off and beds up. He did not just hit on me with his fiance working on the floor upstairs. He did not just shake my hand hard enough to break it while interviewing me, shoulda taken that as a sign! She did not take a nap in the resident's bed.....with the door open...and had the resident report it to the nurse. :eek:

Oh no she didnt ....realize her pt with MS who is paralyzed from the waist down and is obviously incontent had a bm and asked to let her know next time so she can get him to the bathroom quickly!

My first day as a CNA, felt so bad and stupid after i realized he didnt even know he had one!!

No she did not describe the purulent drainage as "*****" in her nursing notes....

this is going to be really stupid, but i have seen this post 7 times and CANNOT figure what the stars are covering!!i know what the drainage looks like, but cant find anything with that many letters! i feel stupid, but really want to know!! :jester:

They are trying to say "puss-like". But instead they are writing about a kitty cat... or a profane name for a body part...

ha.

no she did not come to clinical at 7 AM on a thursday still drunk from the Phillies game the night before, and get caught by her instructor sleeping on her patients chair, and reeking of alcohol.... and did not get kicked out of the program!! (definately not me! im still trying to figure out how she is still in..)
