:clown:thank you EVERONE!!!!!!!!!! I just got my final grades back and got all A's, i know its the "easy" first quarter classes but it really lifted my spirits.. and thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so what i have is manage time and its possible. and can be comparitable to the military. lol oh and thank you:clown:

I am just an aide for now but I know the work load lol they are as follows

Wow your working on the floor with only one day of working on the floor? sounds harsh. At my work you have 8 hours of computer orientation and than 5-7 days of shadowing another aide to get used to pts and other aides than they put you with someone else! from the way you put it it seems like you only had one day. I have been there for a year now but my first day(orientating) I smiled at the first resident I saw and he hollared back "what the hell are you laughing at this aint no laughing matter" and than went on the whole day talking about how I was making fun of him. Turned out he had dementia and wanted to go back so bed but wasnt aloud due the the fact him and his roommate had just got in an argument and they were trying to switch his room. lol. Than the first day by myself one of the other aides had a family emergency and had to leave so in the middle of dinner (i work 2nd due to school) we had to swich assignments GUH and I had to pick up litteratly the hardest shower on the floor! I still dont like doing it she hits scratches screams and is pretty strong!! also she told me she hopes I run out in front of a car and die. lol. I love her now just dont like the shower. Advice- please do not refer to your job as "wiping butts" or having to "deal" with residents. They are human beings and deserve love and respect. You take care of their personal needs and need to be their companion not enemy. I love my residents all 100+ of them (i am a float and work with everyone due to being part time) They have become like family. Your just going to have to pray you have good co-workers and I would recomend talking to an experienced aide or nurse about each resident you have at the beggining of you shift tommorow to know if theres anything important you should now and how to transfer them or if thir sick NPO or anything. Lastly come to work everyday with a positive attitude and dont take anger out on residents. Their innocent, and just want to be cared for. I love my job and if it payed better I would stay forever.

This not just for males and I am not a male but I am just trying to get as many responces as possible. Thank you very much.
