  1. CNA Personalities

    GCTMT replied to fuzzywuzzy's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Have you been a nurse for 16 years in another universe? Were you "lazy" when you were a CNA? I guess you're the exception huh. I don't care who you are or how long you've worked in healthcare. Most...

  2. Why Do CNA's cannabilize each other, and what can be done to fix it?

    GCTMT posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I'm seeing a disturbing trend on this board, seems like alot of the griping and complaining is aimed at fellow CNA's. Why do you think this is? This is not yet another post for you to gripe about...

  7. CNA Personalities

    GCTMT replied to fuzzywuzzy's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    It's interesting that the one person here with a different opinion on this thread is "bitter". You must have psychic powers, to be able to make some a judgment. I give, this thread is so hilarious. I...

  8. Why Do CNA's cannabilize each other, and what can be done to fix it?

    GCTMT replied to GCTMT's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    GCTMT replied to fuzzywuzzy's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

  10. CNA Personalities

    GCTMT replied to fuzzywuzzy's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    You obviously don't know what I am talking about. CNA's are responsible for their own behavior and actions, of course, but we can't break the laws of physics or create time. I could really care less...

  12. CNA Personalities

    GCTMT replied to fuzzywuzzy's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    So, which one are you? It was funny, but putting your fellow CNA's into neat little packages seems a little innapropriate and misguided, I know you were just joking though. I wish CNA's would realize...

    GCTMT replied to KarynicaRN's topic in Geriatric, LTC

  14. What time does your LTC facililty start getting residents up?

    GCTMT replied to KarynicaRN's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I care about the residents and want what is best for them. But, working here is merely a paycheck while I get myself through nursing school. When I came to work here, I was excited about making a...

  15. What time does your LTC facililty start getting residents up?

    GCTMT replied to KarynicaRN's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    We start getting ours up @ about 5. There are only so many of us CNA's to go around and breakfast is @ 7. I think it's ridiculous personally, but, I don't make the rules and I don't think the DON...

    GCTMT replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Activism, Healthcare
