  1. Hospital CNA Screening Interview

    I think you have to stop dwelling on it. You did the best you could with the interview and unfortunitly it is out of your hands right now. You will just drive yourself nuts thinking of what could...
  2. I dont know where else to turn.

    To Tree73-LTC can be a tough job, and I am sorry for your experiances or maybe this was just one bad day that you are venting about. But maybe a different venue will be more to your liking and you...
  3. Had a horrible day in clinicals :(

    I am so sorry that you had a bad day. Big Hugs and praying tomarrow will be a better and brighter day. I wouldn't beat yourself up too much because if you don't know where everything is you are going...
  4. Nursing Shortage

    Ok I guess I understand better what you were trying to say.... Though I think you are still wrong in putting CNAs into the mix of taking over RN job opertunities. MAs can work in Doc offices but not...
  5. Nursing Shortage

    I as a CNA taking over RN duties? UMMM NO I DON'T THINK SO. And I won't be taking over LPN jobs either. I think you NURSES are safe from me taking over your jobs anytime soon;) I think whoever wrote...
  6. Expired California CNA to Texas CNA

    Every state is different in their rules but being that your CNA is expired AND you haven't worked in 6 years you might have to take the class and exam all over again. If you still were a working CNA...
  7. What would you do???

    Wow I think you are taking this way out of the relm of what the OP was looking for when posting this. She is not asking if we think oral hygene is important or not. What she is asking is if you find...
  8. From MA to CNA help?

    For the last question, I'd say that you might want to take a CNA class if you want a CNA job. Even though you have more training medicaly as a MA then a CNA, and some things that you go through in CNA...
  9. As we all know being in Health Care means that we have to work holidays at times. But it makes it hard when you find out you need to take a shift only 16 hours before your shift and you already made...
  10. What would you do???

    Yeah that would work, or maybe Non compliant perhaps would be a better word. Just as long as it is documented that you tried to brush her teeth but she did not allow you to do it properly is all I...
  11. What would you do???

    I only mentioned to write refuse down so that it is recorded that you at least tried to brush her teeth. It also sounded to me in this senerio that Jessica WAS forcing herself onto mary. That is...
  12. What would you do???

    I would never lay a hand on (Mary) when she is like that, and I would tell Jesica that she had to stop as well or I'd have to report it. Sure the family wants it, but it is ultimately the patients...
  13. I hear you sister! Something always seems to happen every blasted holiday with his side. Somtimes I get caught in the middle of the drama and sometimes I don't. I am trying a new skill though. I...
  14. Reportable to state?

    Totally agree with Amolucia. What are the reasons no one wants to tell the DON? I can tell you it might be scary to go to the DON, but if you were to go behind everyones back and go to state with this...
  15. I took care of a dear man that was having quite a few hallucinations this afternoon. He saw teddy bears, kids in red suits, dog in windows while looking at the wall some man in a weird hat A lady...
  16. Well my hubby (bless his heart) called my mother in law to tell her the bad news. She actually took it a lot better then I thought she would have. I guess she was disappointed, but the thought did...
  17. Interview on Monday in LTC

    oh that's a bummer. So I take it you won't be taking the job then. well hopefully somewhere you will be able to find a job that will allow you to work with the geriatric population that will make a...
  18. Practicing Out of Scope

    Good for you at catching this and not making the mistake and just going with the flow thinking it is ok just because you see the other nurses doing something. Hopefully it will all just blow over and...
  19. Hospital interview

    i've never personally gone through hospital interviews but I think that some people have said that they had group interviews so I don't think it is uncommon to have one. Hope the best for you and that...
  20. Best way to apply?

    Love it!!! That is so funny, but oh so true that these type of things makes people understand just how serious you are about wanting to work for them, and it makes YOU memerable to them when you go in...
  21. Interview on Monday in LTC

    on pins and needles wondering how the interview
  22. how did you guys find your CNA jobs?

    Down sides for me: -You get called quite a bit to take on extra shifts. Sometimes within hours of the shift starting because someone got sick or in a car accident. They need people to go there....
  23. how did you guys find your CNA jobs?

    I am afraid not I live in MI. But try Home Care around yur area. It is amazing in my opinion. You set your own hours and shift that you want to work. You only have to take care of one person at once....

  25. Best way to apply?

    You could call them and ask about coming in and getting an app. If they perfer online they will tell you then and you won't be wasting gas money going to facilities and getting turned down. I know it...
