1. In Praise of My CNA's

   kserasera replied to CareteamRN70's topic in CNA/MA

   I agree with you. Pizza is great but for the lazy ones it just means that they can continue being lazy. I would like to praise you as a RN that you actually notice and appreciate your CNA's hard work. From my experiences, not many RNs appreciate or ...

2. What you'd REALLY like to say....

   kserasera replied to ICor9:24's topic in CNA/MA

   I am frustrated with the things that are going on. why is it always me that everyone chooses to pick on? the cna's who like to slack off and let me do their work, the nurses who just like to yell at me, and the residents who feel that it's just not ...

5. What you'd REALLY like to say....

   kserasera replied to ICor9:24's topic in CNA/MA

   I hate to say it and it's going to sound bad but I sort of do this, not to the ones who know but to the ones who aren't really all there, the ones who can't remember and the ones who can't hear. I don't say anything bad like so and so did this, just ...

6. What you'd REALLY like to say....

   kserasera replied to ICor9:24's topic in CNA/MA

   I wish that my supervisor and coworkers would just tell me straight out or give me the reason why they're giving me the cold shoulder. I work hard, help them out all the time, and are nice to them but I feel like I am not getting it back. I think it'...

7. Talk too loud?

   kserasera replied to kserasera's topic in CNA/MA

   Haha... yes. I will pay more attention next time. I must sound like I'm shouting at them.

8. Best shift for a new CNA?

   kserasera replied to AzDeb's topic in CNA/MA

   I agree with those who said 2nd shift. I worked 1st shift when I first started and it was a horrible experience for me. I felt rushed to get everyone to breakfast in an hour. It was very stressful. I picked up a PM shift one night and it was so much ...

9. CNA on rehab unit in hospital

   kserasera replied to tmow86's topic in CNA/MA

   I work in a rehab/LTC facility. Just like yousoldtheworld said, there will be many people coming in and out with different things. You have to know how they transfer, how they turn while in bed, if they can have showers, what is allowed or not. They...

10. Talk too loud?

    kserasera posted a topic in CNA/MA

    I work with some people who are hard of hearing and I have to talk loudly to them. But now, I don't know when to stop. I feel like I'm talking too loud to the ones who don't have a hard time hearing and it makes me sound rude. I do it without even th...

11. I need to vent.

    kserasera replied to y&rfan84's topic in CNA/MA

    I was like that too when I first started. My coworkers didn't help, they didn't tell me what to do or the residents routines. I had to learn the hard way. My solution, changing from AM shift to PM shift. You'll notice that AM shifts are more rush rus...

12. CNA personalities ... revisited

    kserasera replied to LaterAlligator's topic in CNA/MA

    I think I'm the workhorse & the ****. I work and work until I can't take it anymore and then I become the **** because I'm so miserable being there.

13. FED UP CNAS!!!!

    kserasera replied to marineswife0809's topic in CNA/MA

    I agree with everyone saying that CNA's do a lot of jobs that belong to other people. Our CNA responsibilities are to pick up, pass out, set up and clean up the food. To clean up the rooms, take out trash everytime there is a dirty depend in the bag,...

15. Being called in too much?

    kserasera replied to GhostOfTheSun's topic in CNA/MA

    Truthfully, it's because you always say yes and they know it. It's okay to say no if you don't feel like you can work that day or it's too much for you. I have learned to say, "No, I'm sorry. I have plans." Or "I'll think about it. I'll call you and ...
