1. Does Anyone Have Eachother's Back Anymore?

   BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in CNA/MA

   This is verified by the doctor. The doctor is the one who prescribes the meds. I am not dispensing anything without the doctors permission. The doctor sees the patients/talks to them about their meds before they leave with them.

2. Does Anyone Have Eachother's Back Anymore?

   BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in CNA/MA

   I pack the meds for select patients. When they come in for their appointment I dispense (give) them to the patient and have them sign for it. Maybe I'm using the word dispense in the wrong context, but on the patients' intake is a list of the meds th...

3. Does Anyone Have Eachother's Back Anymore?

   BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in CNA/MA

   Good tips all! I made a chart last week with all the patients I am distributing meds to this week. Since I won't be distributing to all those patients myself, I am going to have my co-workers initial next to the patients they distribute to. I will in...

   That's the truth. I obviously can't trust them. Gotta watch my back 24/7 when I'm around them.

5. Does Anyone Have Eachother's Back Anymore?

   BambiBelle07 posted a topic in CNA/MA

   I am a CMA. I realize this is a nursing board, but I have not come across a board for Medical Assistants. I just started a new job at a private practice about a month ago. For the first two weeks, my co-workers were nice enough and fairly helpful. Th...

6. What to expect as a Medical Assistant?

   BambiBelle07 replied to oliviaapNS's topic in CNA/MA

   Ok. So you will be training and working at the same time. How long until you are on your own? After the first month? I, too get nervous on the first day. My boss actually saw it as a positive because it showed I didn't want to mess up and really care...

7. What to expect as a Medical Assistant?

   BambiBelle07 replied to oliviaapNS's topic in CNA/MA

   Congratulations on the job! I know you are feeling a mix of nerves and excitement, which is totally normal and expected. They probably wont expect you to know everything, and if they do they have unrealistic expectations. Reviewing tonight wouldn't ...

8. Hearing impaired RN and telephone use

   BambiBelle07 replied to AFwife727's topic in Disabilities

   I know I am late on this post, but I too have found it difficult to hear on the phone. This is especially so if there is a lot of background noise. I have not been to an audiologist due to being underinsured. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who...

9. What to expect as a Medical Assistant?

   BambiBelle07 replied to oliviaapNS's topic in CNA/MA

   No problem! I also suggest bringing a note pad when you start working. It can be a small one so it can fit in your scrub pocket. Take notes as you are being trained, so you know what to do. They might have you shadow someone who already works there. ...

10. I got myself in pickle-jam. Need opinions.

    BambiBelle07 replied to Lulu Belle's topic in Technicians

    Go on the interview! From my experience, an in-person interview occurs if they liked what you said during the phone interview. So congratulations on making it to the next round. You are probably being way too hard on yourself. They had to of liked so...

11. What to expect as a Medical Assistant?

    BambiBelle07 replied to oliviaapNS's topic in CNA/MA

    I've worked as a Medical Assistant for a little over a year and I've been in more than one job. In my first job, I answered phones, scheduled patients, verified insurance, collected copayments, input patient demographics in the EHR. I also performed ...

12. To The Point Where I Want to Cry

    BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in Relations

    Good news! I got out of that place! Woooooooo! It was a huge weight off my shoulder quitting. I started my new job last week. It's another private practice, but well established and there are a lot of people working there. Now I've just been trying t...

    I've definitely been applying all over. I'm hoping once I get certified as an MA, I'll be more marketable. How long does it take to become an EMT?

14. To The Point Where I Want to Cry

    BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in Relations

    Thank you. I've been on a few interviews. I'm only down to one day a week since we have no patients. The doctor isn't gonna pay me to sit and stare at the walls all day with nothing to do/no patients to see. I'm not discouraged by this. I see this a...
