Failed my CNA Skills Test a second time
Wow sorry! I got mine in Washington State in 2010! Passed it all first try. But when I moved to NC last summer I challenged the cna 1 test and failed because of hand washing!!!!!! I used one too many paper towels! I was So mad! She said "you used a paper towel to dry your hands and then you threw it away, got another paper towel and turned the sink off with it. Then threw that one away." ... I now live in Oregon because the pay for CNAs is a lot better but it took a month to endorse my license.

Hospice & ghosts -
Hello all, I am curios as I have provided comfort meds and comfort measures and post mortem care and I love being there to pray with their spirit as they travel to heaven. A coworker of mine said something about hitchhiker ghosts, bad spirits that are there when people pass ?

What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?
I blocked ghost/spirits out of my head for years u til I was doing my 8:00pm med pass in the 100's hall. I heard a loud crying of "boo hoo hoo!" Over & over and I stopped, locked the med cart and checks all rooms. The residents were either asleep or saying to me "no honey I'm fine" I dismissed it and moved on! We got another hospice pt admitted and within a week she went to actively dying and on comfort meds and measures... I loved her. She had three daughters who never left her side. We grew close and in the final days, they said that I was the only one she would call by name. So sweet. She passed on my 8:00pm med pass and 30 minutes post I heard "hey, Sam, it's me" loud like a megaphone was in the hall. It was her voice and I got down onto the floor and a CNA walked down the hall and I told her "I think I am going crazy!" Things were fine and I was passing the upstairs meds three weeks later. The charting room is locked per nurse and med aid keys. First floor cna came to me in a panic asking if I left the chatting room unlocked. My answer was no. And why? She said her and another cna found ALL 90 resident charts on the floor. They picked them up. I thought that was super weird. Even more so when one cna told me of a resident who passed away in the room behind the charting room who used to bang on the wall to the charting binders to get attention... HMMM. Same room where the call light kept going off and the executive directors even walked in with me to turn it off once. The door was locked prior. :-S
