  1. Does Anyone Have Eachother's Back Anymore?

    BambiBelle07 posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I am a CMA. I realize this is a nursing board, but I have not come across a board for Medical Assistants. I just started a new job at a private practice about a month ago. For the first two weeks, my...

  2. Does Anyone Have Eachother's Back Anymore?

    BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    This is verified by the doctor. The doctor is the one who prescribes the meds. I am not dispensing anything without the doctors permission. The doctor sees the patients/talks to them about their meds...

  3. Does Anyone Have Eachother's Back Anymore?

    BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I pack the meds for select patients. When they come in for their appointment I dispense (give) them to the patient and have them sign for it. Maybe I'm using the word dispense in the wrong context,...

  4. Does Anyone Have Eachother's Back Anymore?

    BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Good tips all! I made a chart last week with all the patients I am distributing meds to this week. Since I won't be distributing to all those patients myself, I am going to have my co-workers initial...

  6. What to expect as a Medical Assistant?

    BambiBelle07 replied to oliviaapNS's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Ok. So you will be training and working at the same time. How long until you are on your own? After the first month? I, too get nervous on the first day. My boss actually saw it as a positive because...

    BambiBelle07 replied to oliviaapNS's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Congratulations on the job! I know you are feeling a mix of nerves and excitement, which is totally normal and expected. They probably wont expect you to know everything, and if they do they have...

  8. To The Point Where I Want to Cry

    BambiBelle07 posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Most of you have probably seen my posts about the difficult doctor I work with. For those of you that don't, I'm a fairly new Medical Assistant working for a single doctor at a private practice. This...

  9. Hearing impaired RN and telephone use

    BambiBelle07 replied to AFwife727's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    I know I am late on this post, but I too have found it difficult to hear on the phone. This is especially so if there is a lot of background noise. I have not been to an audiologist due to being...

  10. What to expect as a Medical Assistant?

    BambiBelle07 replied to oliviaapNS's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    No problem! I also suggest bringing a note pad when you start working. It can be a small one so it can fit in your scrub pocket. Take notes as you are being trained, so you know what to do. They might...

  11. I got myself in pickle-jam. Need opinions.

    BambiBelle07 replied to Lulu Belle's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    Go on the interview! From my experience, an in-person interview occurs if they liked what you said during the phone interview. So congratulations on making it to the next round. You are probably being...

    BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Good news! I got out of that place! Woooooooo! It was a huge weight off my shoulder quitting. I started my new job last week. It's another private practice, but well established and there are a lot of...

    BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Thank you. I've been on a few interviews. I'm only down to one day a week since we have no patients. The doctor isn't gonna pay me to sit and stare at the walls all day with nothing to do/no patients...

    Yup. He's obviously doing something illegal. If he wasn't, he should be able to tell me if he's in a meeting, seeing patients at the hospital, etc. I could see him not wanting to tell me what he does...

  18. To The Point Where I Want to Cry

    BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Did you quit before or after you found the job with benefits? I think I need to wait until after I find a job due to finances and what not. I truly don't understand why doctors think they are a god...

    BambiBelle07 replied to BambiBelle07's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I really like your suggestion to set up a meeting with the doctor.. I think it will show him I want to learn and improve. In the meantime, I'm going to apply everywhere I can. I have some experience...

    I definitely appreciate all the advice I've received. Y'all are great. I'm thinking of reaching out to my Medical Assisting teacher and see if she knows anyone hiring. I hope I find another job soon,...
