MDS training

[PopsT]

Hi everyone. I've been a nurse for nearly 30 years. I did some MDS entry as a "helper" about 20 years ago (just entering in numbers in MDS 2.0)  I've just started a new position as an MDS nurse at a 120 bed facility about 3 weeks ago so I am practically learning MDS from scratch. The other MDS nurse went to part time working from home and there is one other MDS nurse on site. There is a consultant nurse that has been training me but she maybe comes 3 out of 5 days a week as she has other facilities she has to go to. This leaves the present MDS trying to train me while she is behind on about 30 MDS reports. While she is doing a great job, she will be leaving on maternity leave in June. That leaves me and.....? (Also the nurse consultant that has been training me is resigning at the end of this month.) We also started a new computer system so we are going back and forth between the two.  Also, I was trained 1 1/2 days on the floor the first two days I started. We have to take call one weekend a month and a Mon-Thurs one week a month. We have nurse call in's just about every day. The second week I was there I had to take the call rotation for the nurse that left and I had to work a day shift as a nurse had to leave sick. It was the first day the new computer system went online, I was unfamiliar with the patients and was lost as a goose. Needless to say I was very aggravated. I have been doing care plans to help out the other MDS nurse in the meantime (which to me is a breeze) but still very uncomfortable with the MDS process itself. My concern is if I have to work the floor as much as we have call in's, I will be behind on my MDS work and it will fall all on me. I love the residents and the staff has been awesome but I'm very uncomfortable with the whole situation. Seriously thinking about looking for something else. Any thoughts?
