New job

Hi I just got another job in LTC. I am keeping my old job but I am wondering what my dear posting friends think of my description of the facility.

I got a wonderful reception, much better than my other first job, and very extensive orientation so far! :) The facility has all kinds of seminars to introduce new staff to the place. I also share a desk with another nurse and it seems like the two nurses really work together on orders and help each other with treatments and such as opposed to my other job where as far as been a licensed staff, you are basically on your own. Honestly everyone has been so welcoming and it seems like there is such team work! The medication pass seems a little bit harder and it looks like they take some shortcuts that I may not take.

However everything seems a little chaotic, people everywhere, the dining area and such is not as organized. I did not see the staff getting report from the nurse which made me a little uneasy, but it seems that the CNAs all knew what to do, they had their duties laid out, they got the urines and the nurse I was orienting with didn't have to get on their back.

The things I like are; the staff dont force the resident's to work around our schedule and the residents have much more freedom to be people...more team work. I wonder if in your opinion that means it will be much easier even though it is less organized?
