  14. Lost the 'CHARGE' in "Charge Nurse"

    pielęgniarka replied to Furwillfly's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I feel for you--there's a lot wrong with this situation. Not only is it insubornation, it sounds like those CNA's are neglecting some of their duties. I would keep a list of the tasks you delegate to...
