New CNA grad, Hospital & Smells!!!

Published

I want to go to a CNA course and try to get a job at a hospital as a new CNA. *Cue roaring laughter here*

I'm the person who really WANTS to work the night shift. Do you think I'd have a shot at that? I'm in Southern California.

The reason why I am sort of refraining from working in an LTC facility is that I have a very sensitive nose. I remember volunteering in high school at a LTC facility and the constant smell of urine stimulates my gag reflex. I don't mind the occasional poo and pee smell but to have a constant smell makes me throw up. =(

Okay everyone, just a warning, this company doesn't get back to you as quickly so I wouldn't recommend buying through this company. Maybe just do a search for "Odor Perception Inhibitor".

The main nursing home where i'm to do clinicals smells like pickles... i kid you not! My great grandma and and great uncle lived there until there death... and everytime i went in there, the smell would hit you at first but then you got use to it.

Learn to mouth breathe and chew gum. Dont do the 2 at the same time or the gum will start to taste like poo.

OMG I WAS CRACKING UP WHEN I READ THIS!:yeah:
