nice_nnurse

Thank you nuresemaa well said i am not DON but ADON in LTC , and would like to add i work my butt off! I also get paid salary with no bonuses, and no overtime i cannot say no when floor nurses call in many days i work 16-18 hour days trying to keep up with my work and work on floor for call ins .if i hear it once i hear it a million times a day "WHAT DO THEY GET PAID FOR TO SIT AT A DESK AND DO NOTHING, THEY CAN DO IT" i had to work 2 extra shifts this week one because of weather (could not drive because she was scared) and next because the floor nurse had to get ready for christmas such as wrapping presents and making candy, etc.i get calls from the time i leave the facility to the time i return.when the CNA's need help the FLOOR NURSES tell them go get adon she has nothing to do. well let me tell you when state walks in and starts firing questions about facility where do the floor nurses send them to yes that's right my office. and you know what i have facility ,my own and floor nurses butts covered because i work 24-7 to make sure it is all done. and i really resent some of the above comments. maybe you should start with your own attitudes and see if things do not improve.
