I can agree with all the above thanks for everyones advice and I am definitely not there to hurt anyone or abandon the patients as well...I do know that the shift was covered with other CNAs. You know,since I have been in this field I have seen abuse through other People on residents and have told a RN about the situation and then got my life threaten this was years ago...Plus, they fired me because they knew I new about this. What in the world is up with that.....I know that here in Colorado they will not tolerate that. I love caring for others....I have a lot to learn in this field as well...and its nice to chat with all of you that know

Basically The CNA was asked if she wanted to work overtime and went in on the evening to help out. She was then being yelled at in front of the co-workers and the patients.....She felt humiliated because she was not able to talk to the Nurse to explain her situation at that point of time so she quit walked out due to the mental abuse of her co-worker. The DON said not to call her late on the weekends in her last meeting. Do you understand now!

does a CNA have a legal right to leave if she is being yelled at in front of employees and the residents and being treated unfairly and the DON said in her last mandatory meeting not to call late at night and was asking to work on her night off?.......... Now is this abandonment?
