  1. I just got my cna license. I was working in a hospital and got fired for doing things that the nurse should have done. All I got was thank you and when I reduced the sound of the iv and notified the nurse because it was going on for 15 minutes, the nurse reported me to hr, who let me go. So not sure if it's ok to be too helpful. I got along well with 99.9 % of the nurses and they were ok with me. No mercy for trying to be too helpful!
  2. Hello, I am not a Cna, I am working on my BA for radiology, but not yet in the program. Luckily I lender in a job in the hospital as a patient sitter for my first experience and nurses generally don't like us because sitter does nothing. 99.9 % of nurses liked I was helpful and hands on . I worked on my Cna license, still waiting, to make my self useful, but I see how Cna are treated and helping is a bad thing to do. One nurse repored me with a cellphone and that I silenced the iv because no one showed up, though they heard it and when I told them what time I silenced it , soon after, they used it against me. So that's a ground to get fired, and that I helped the nurse with the patient. I wasn't supposed to. So I learned the hard way. Only help a nurse with what my scope is, and if the IV goes off the whole day or night, I will leave it alone . In fact no more cna work, as there is more you can do wrong than help. 99 % are great nurses, we worked great together but one bad apple got me fired. Oh well. That's why I didn't want nursing to begin with.
  3. I am not a nurse but I work for the nursing department. My job was to provide patient safety, a sitter. My first hospital job. I put my self through CNA program to get certified and one day before I get certified and posibly being hired as a Cna I get sent home because I was caught with a cellphone while with a patient. I used my cellphone to play music for the patient, and I also had to lower the sound volume on the IV to help the patient relax, and I also had to empty a drainage bag because the nurse didn't notice that it was full to the top. No nurses ever had issues with me before, so it's my first offense, except once I was scolded for coming late from a brake. I am not going into nursing, but wanted to work as a Cna, so I can help patients and nurses, and being busy with all that I don't think I would use my cellphone that much anyways. I am worried that my door will close in the field now because of all that. All nurses were happy with my ability to help, they didn't say anything about my cellphone but that one bad apple. From all your perspective I hope I can see some light. I am willing to change everything 360 if they would give me a chance. Is it that easy to get fired from a medical job and loose a career in health care? I am also going for another health care program that takes 5 years to complete. I sacrifice alot , for a cellphone use to end it all ?
