It's been 9 months . . .

Thanks but i'm still nervous. During the interview, she mentioned that she was in awww that some nurses actually graduated.

I'm a quick learner, but it has to be thru repetition.....and again, its been a while since I've done anything in nursing.

Just been doing office/billing work.

I've only worked in one AL and that was as an Assisted Living Attendant. The nurse was there from 0800-1630. Our residents had to be able to perform the majority of their own ADLs. We passed the meds and she would do any treatments. She also was the one who spoke to the doctor, if necessary, and did assessments. What was nice about it, was that there was time to sit and chat with the residents (only 20 beds). Anyway, my point being, that maybe you're stressing yourself out too much. Good luck!

Thanks for your help!!!!

Yea, I tend to do that....i just don't want to end up looking like a fool...i dunno....

I'm alot better now....but still have some butterflies..

You'll have the butterflies each new position you take, because it is the unknown. But, that is a good thing. I don't care for the ones that walk in all-knowing and not careful! I have not worked in assisted living, but maybe someone that has can post some of the major medications that they do pass. I assume it would be HTN and diabetic meds, statins, asthma, most of the common things.

Anyone care to share what else? I am thinking about doing such a job on weekends, myself!

OKAY...turns out its not assisted living, but SNF.

I'm on my feet all day and sooo tired. I'm being trained by a LVN who's had 20 yrs experience......

I hope I can hang in there.....there seems like soo much to do.
