  12. She did WHAT?

    Did you offer to speak with the CNA and ask if there was anything bothering her or perhaps something that you could do to help her? I am not sure I would break the chain of command and go directly to the DON. Maybe something is happening in that CNA'...
  13. The humility of it all

    Regarding the original post, I am curious as to why the RN told you that you had done a good job. This led you to believe that you were performing this task correctly. It is almost like the orginal RN was not really paying attention or just setting y...
