I think its more how they bounced me around my first week I was paired with a guy who was ok buy way too busy to help, so I basically was stuck in a room watching a resident most times...the second week I was put with a cna who is good bit not a trainer, she seeems to just be ablr to handel her own assignment and was way to crazy to train. So I had to fend for myself again. The thirsd week my supervisor put me on dau shoft with a wounderfull trainer and pkenty of help. It did help me ouy trendously. The drawback was going from a day shift which is where I need to be as a new cna back to a hard no help second shift. Right now ots going a little better but still shakeu

I am a new CNA, I love what I do and my goal is to become a RN. I decided to start on the CNA level get money/scholarship and use it to get into a good school. This is a new step in life for me becuase what I originally went to school for and degreed in, did not work out. I was hired by a great place, but am having a really hard time after about a mounth of working there. The problems that I have is a lack of confidence, lack of help, and other things. I think the first problem was that the nurse cordinator hired me new, and i dont believe that the place had a plan implented on hirering a new CNA compared to someone who had a year experience. also on the second shift, I feel that it is the worst possible shift for myself because there is no support for a new CNA. eeryone just dose there own thing. where as the day shift or first shift there are more people on and more support. I hae tred to tell the nurse cordinator about it, but it seems like iam bothering her. the NC just says, keep working the 3-11 and we will talk. I feel fustrated day in and out. I hate this because I need as a new CNA confidence and I am a hard worker and take alot of care and love of my paitents. I am looking for some adice and hope i can get some from CNAs and nurses. ..fustrated!
