pyocola

30+ beds with lots of psych problems. they frown upon the overtime and you will get "the talk" from the manager. and feel that i should be competent enough to be able to finish everything on time or its my fault if i do not. but it seems just impossible to do so. i don't mind staying up and about for 8 hrs straight, but the paper works afterwards, off the clock just breaks me.

most of them stay, an mostly unpaid. most of them dont go on breaks either. only those that had work for years there are able to get finish on time and the nightshifts. i feel that its not worth the money they pay me. coz even after i get home i feel miserable.

they do help me out when im lagging behind but they too are busy. they tell me to take a break, there is really no one that will continue the work, so i had to just do it or ill be more stressed and late. when i get to take a break, ill just be called and asked to do something. so i end up just working. and i cant seem to find the appetite anymore when i know i have tons to do. onetime i even bursted, i cried, i cant control it anymore, coz i was so exhausted and realized i have a lot of paperworks to go.

thanks for the comment. i pray i get a better job even if it pays less

i have just been working for 3 weeks as new grad lvn in a nursing home. and i want to quit because... i feel exhausted and worn out everyday. i dont get to use the bathroom eat or drink for 8 hrs because to the workload, ill get behind if i take a break so i pretty much clock out for break but work through it, coz technically nobody is covering you during break. i stay extra 2-4 hrs unpaid overtime just to finish my unending paperworks. just after work 3 weeks, my bp had dropped and i lost incredible amount of weight and i think i have uti now coz my side really hurts constantly for a more than a week now. i dont get benefits because im on call, but get called all the time. i want to stay because... i dont want the one who got me the job look bad. my parents cant find work so i need a way to support them along with my sister. the pay is great but if i compute my salary with the actually hrs i work, its minimum pay. economy is bad, and ill look bad in my resume to quit so early with is in mind should i quit? in you opinion.

i just got my license and i need help deciding which nursing path is most suited for me.. what kind of jobs lvn can get? i read in my nursing book lvn can work in a veterinary hospital, arent vet tech the "nurse" here? im kinda confused. are lvn hired to work in the surgical room? are there lvn jobs that mostly work with computers or records?? im most interested in knowing about unconventional jobs lvn can take. im not really good at dealing with people so i feel like i made a horrable mistake for taking lvn, maybe i shouldnt have been swayed in the first place
