nurse aides rules

Specialties Geriatric

Published

I would like to get feedback from the group on the topic that in some nursing homes, nurse aides rule. I have worked in facilities where charge nurses are afraid of the nurse aides. They complain that have noticed nurse aides sleeping on the job,

running their mouth throughout the shift,

taking lunch and break hours longer than required, yelling at the residents, ignoring residents' calls and what have you. But they are afraid to write them out for fear of retaliation. I am always the first one to bring this out to the administration. May I know if any of you out there experience the same.

Daytonite, hi, I did not realize that this was an old thread. Thankyou for pointing that out. I had just been pecking through the new postings on the thread.
