I have been working as a CNA for a couple months now at a nursing home, on the rehab floor in the morning. There are four of us for about 40 residents and we usually get breaks and lunch by pairs so there are sometimes just 2 nursing assistants on the floor during that time.
The thing that really ticks me off though is that sometimes when I come back from break or lunch there will be a ton of call lights going off and the other 2 nursing assistants are running their behinds off, while the nurses are either sitting on their lazy rears talking about who they are dating,where they are going after work or whatever. It seems they think they are above doing "CNA work", but even worse than that,is what if the resident had an emergency or something and they are just sitting there doing nothing instead of answering a call light!
I luckily don't have to go back to work until Thursday, but I don't know how long I can hold my tongue because there is nothing I hate worse than someone who thinks they are better than other people and when their stuck up attitude might cause harm to a resident.
