...Forgot to mention that I was replaced after the part-time hours

Yes, fellow LPNs, its happening here in Northeast Ohio! Trained and oriented CMA and was then given extreme partime hours(as were the other LPNs) while CMA gets 40hrs and benefits! And of course, they are paid less per hour. The entire program is a disaster for us LPNs as well as the patients we care for and thet dont get a choice either. No such thing as patient care...its all about money and its sickening

I just trained and oriented a Certified Medication Aide, saw them destroy my residents and no one cared. Then us LPNs were given short shifts and CMA has all the full time hours. We (LPNs) had to do double the work, work scared for our residents and our ability to keep up with it all, and pray no on fell in the midst of it all. I am a seasoned nurse and gave the CMA all my knowledge and guidance and what did I get?? Replaced after being there for a year and a half! Now I cant find ajob anywhere, and I have soo tried and being older and experienced doesnt mean anything anymore
