Yes I believe there will be plenty of times you are able to study while taking care of clients on 3rd. It really depends on how the client like it. Some want you to do a few chores, but they are...
missing you just reminded me of something else. Will you be able to stay awake for a 8 to 12 hour shift on 3rd? Some agencies like the one I work for does not allow the CNAs to go to sleep. Not...
There are usually plenty of home care agencies that will love you wanting over night shifts, and I am sure there will be plenty of clients needing it. They are probably the hardest shifts to get CNAs...
If these two offers were to be put in front of me I would be taking the second offer. Many more plus points for that job. 1 It is closer to home. I know you were offered to stay with your brother,...
I guess you have to think about when you think you want to start to work full time rather then part time. If you think you want to get rolling on a full time job anytime soon then maybe this would be...
Where have you put in so far? If you have only been putting apps in at hospitals you might want to broden your search and look at other places to try to find that first job. Have you considard...
Maybe you just have to try to find that slower pace non hospital job. Have you looked into clinics or Dr, offices. my sister in law was a hospital nurse in ICU for something like 10 years in two...
I want to be a CNA but I don't have time to take the class and I don't want to pay for it. Can't I just challenge the states test and be a CNA. There isn't much to know anyways right. I might add I am...
A pair of much loved work shoes. I have worked at my job for over two years, and our dress code is either kaki or black pants. Well I usually wear my tennis shoes if I have my kakis on, but when I...
Thanks all for your replies. I actually went to the mall tonight and got a pair of Merrill's. They are a nice black leather shoe and was really surpised at how comfortable they were. Yes and as...
Thank you Ruby, and I believe you are right about my toes. When I was young I had braces on my legs because I had intoeing. I think that at a point the shoes that were on my braces were too small for...
ok well good luck I agree that there are many opertunities for CNA jobs out there. Do't saddle yourself with a CNA job for a year when you will be a graduating
We all have these days sometimes. Big Hugs Give yourself a nice warm bath, curl up on your favorite couch with a soothing drink like nice warm tea, and let the day try to slip away knowing tomarrow...
Yes the driving can be a problem, and your right unless it is way out there I do not get reimbersed either for my gas. Though my particular agency does their best at giving me clients that are fairly...
As exhusting as 12 hour shifts can be I think MANY nurse love that they only have to work 3 to 4 days a week to be seen as full time. There will be a lot fewer nurses that will want to work 5 days to...
So I am a little confused... are you a new RN looking at CNA jobs? I never knew a CNA job which had 1 year contracts and orination for 3 weeks. That sounds more like an RN position, but then I don't...
Yep I am in agreement with Caliotter and will stand by my first statement that you need to find someone for legal counceling. There are so many questions I have, and this story has more holes and...
When you say case... are you saying that they are taking you to court? I am sorry but we are not allowed to give legal advise. My suggestion is get in contact with a legal adviser on this matter....
Esme is 100% correct. Please do not sign anything till they give you alll the details of your hiring. If they keep refusing to answer your questions move on and try to find something else. If they...
Thanks My reply was based on she said there were 5 to 6 nurses and thought that there should be at LEAST 7 which gave me the image that they were short in staffing, and 10 patients for one nurse also...
Just a few word comes to my mind when I read this....YIKES.....SHUDDER.....HORRIFIC....and RUN!!!!!! I have to agree with you that you are wise to be planning your ESCAPE NOW!! Hopefully there will be...
I am so sorry. But I guess this is a little lesson when you are waiting for phone calls about job opertunities have a way to check your messages while being away from your phone. Especially if it is...
