  1. Name Brands???

    hookyarnandblanket replied to a_lopez1975's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    My previous employer allowed us to wear t-shirts with the facility logo on them and we were allowed to wear jeans on Friday. I never really felt professional there. It was nice but it is almost...

  2. Name Brands???

    hookyarnandblanket replied to a_lopez1975's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    You're right about where you work determining what you wear. I've been fortunate enough to work in places that do not designate what color you have to wear. That being said, I have a personal rule...

    I wear several brands in scrub shirts; it depends on the fit as to what I buy but I try to stick strictly to Dickies and Cherokee. I wear only Dickies scrub pants; I found a fit and style that works...

  7. Night Aides keeping me late

    hookyarnandblanket replied to likwit's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Hypothetically speaking, because not every shift is perfect, the hospital where I work allows patients to wear briefs in bed and out of bed. We have four levels of care: Observation/out patient,...

  8. Quit one to start another and never did

    hookyarnandblanket replied to Nurseeverywhere's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Personally, I would have not quit the other job unless I knew the new facility had received everything they needed to schedule me for orientation. Sorry this happened to you. Maybe you should contact...

    She had two other patients and this patient can't always speak for herself. She's worked in nursing so long that she needs to get out of the profession and retire. She has a horrible attitude and is...

    How about a nurse in charge of infection control who was so lazy, she threw an insulin sharp in the trash can instead of the sharps box directly above the trash can? I caught that one last week. I...
