Specializes in geriatric, pediatrics, hospice, home car.
I am writing in to say that I have just completed my first one year of service at a LTC facility. It is a difficult job and I made it...after a year of service I am officially in my CSEA union. This means that I am open to all the benefits that they have to offer and the Union will protect me from any serious disasters.
I am a single Dad-so it is comforting to know that I am now a part of the permanent staffing there. I have learned so much too. It really is a privilege to work as a nurse... I am a charge nurse and have been given alot of responsibility and feel very proud that I am there.
School was very hard and now after working full time I see that I have made it through the gauntlet....Praise God for all His blessings!! This is a true milestone for me and am so grateful!! Thank you!!
Good for you-congratulations!! You obviously landed in a good LTC who took the time to let you grow and learn and gave you the tools you needed in order to be successful!!
good job share what you learned. it might just help others who also work or intend to work in ltc. what are your expectations for those under your charge?
