Is it possible to make a mechanical soft steak??
Honestly, the food is so terrible and I never see the actual dietician ? I’m thinking about making some kind of ground up steak held together into a steak shape with gravy. We’ll see ?

Is it possible to make a mechanical soft steak??
I have a resident who has had most of his teeth removed and is on a mechanical soft diet. All he talks about is steak and how much he’d like to eat it again. I was wondering if there’s any way to make something similar to steak that he’d be able to eat? Thank you!

Best place and shift time for new CNA
I started out on 11-7 at a really well run nursing home and I believe that gave me a great foundation. I was able to learn without the craziness of meals, family members, ect during the day. Now I work 3-11 at an assisted living facility and I know I couldn’t have done this without experience. I have way more patients and they’re basically nursing home level of care. I have less nursing support (no RNs and less nurses in general) and I am running around like crazy from the minute I walk in until I leave. Don’t be fooled by “assisted living”, there are often some very sick people there that require heavy duty care

Why do nursing homes/LTC facilities have trouble hiring good cnas?
I have been a CNA for about 3 years. My biggest frustration is my coworkers. They are always late/don’t show up, and when they do show up they often do a poor job. And it seems like it’s tolerated because they are so understaffed it’s like they can’t be picky. It seems to be this way across the board in all LTC facilities. Why is it this way? I want to get into nursing school so badly so I don’t have to deal with my coworkers anymore

Do you think I’d get into an LPN program?
I am applying to central Ohio technical college’s LPN program for this fall. I have 3 years of college and about 100 credit hours. I had about a 3.1 GPA and a 3.0 high school GPA. I’ve been an stna/CNA for about 3 years. I got a 77% overall on the TEAS. I’m mostly worried about the science. I studied my *** off and only got a 59%. I got a 90% in the math and around 80% in both the reading and language. I just want to get in so badly and don’t want to be a CNA for much longer haha if anyone has an idea of if they think I have a chance of getting in please let me know
