CNAEdd29

As I get closer to start working as a CNA again, I know this. It will not be as the last time. On this post, I just want to reflect the first time I worked as a CNA from the beginning until now. I hope as people will read this post, it will encourage...

I just got a reply back today and found out how much I will be making... 13.75 an hour. Not only that, but after midnight I will make 1.29 extra which will come up to 15.04 an hour..plus with the 1.25 for the weekend extra, that's 16.29 for the weeke...

It depends. Are you a hard worker, or someone who doesn't want all the pressure. Me, personally, I'd pick night. Why, because it's quiet, and even though it's busy, you can work without all the pressure. Plus, NO BOSSES! :). But you will have to sacr...

This was my article i made, excatly a year and a half ago. I'm back, and decided to to a commentary on myself :) So, read and tell me what you think. Btw, old article is in this link-https://allnurses.com/cna-ma-nursing/the-truth-of-856685.html So, t...

Actually, I've gotten used to it. All it takes is practice, over and over again. But I'd rather not work at a nursing home because i did for clinicals, and it was too much. Plus, hospital benefits are much better.

Lol. But seriously, it's not a laughing matter. No one can take care of a whole floor. it's too dangerous not only to us, but the patients as well.

You ever had that one nurse, or group of nurses who expect you to do everything? Even if you had a whole floor to yourself with 15 patients, for example. Did they expect you to do anything with little help. Of course, there's always gonna be people l...

I have to bow my hat to you. I understand how you feel, because I worked at rehab too. Sometimes it was easy, and sometimes it was hard. But the thing about your post i'm shocked about is how therapy treated you. It seems like they didn't want to hel...

It will be hard, since you had no prior experience. Trust me, I did when I first started, and it was horrible for a few months. But in time, it was easier and I could cope with it. M y best advise to you is to learn everything you can about the floor...

I've had some bad experiences working on floors by myself. But not as bad as working with 33 PATIENTS by myself. not only it's dangerous to me but it's dangerous to the patients. Why, people will call, nurses may call, anything can happen. What's wor...

I personally don't believe that most cna's think they are "Kings". I know I am not one. But I believe we have a right to say something IF we worked as a CNA for a long time and know what's it like. Yes, Nursing is a different level, but our work is j...

If nurses were cnas before, then they would understand more. Look, I know they have much more to do, but if they take time to help with anything, that helps. I know they have so much on there hands, and sometimes, they can't do it. I already explaine...

It frustrates me when certain nurses tell me that I'm not doing my job when in fact I'm doing ALL that I can to my ability. I guess sometimes there's nothing any CNA can do. We just have to get in trouble. It's BS. Go figure.

Trust me, I do know how much you have to do. From passing meds to calling doctors to doctors asking you about the patient to give new orders to get admissions, to discharge, making calls, so much documentation, families, lots of stuff. I've seen and ...

Really?

No, im not a nurse and just found out that i cant "use" it as a title name. I'm sure that many others do so as well. I can see from your point of view, but when a tech has a WHOLE floor with nurses who may not help, it's a big problem. Most nurses w...

I get that. But sometimes we need help with things too. Seriously, we can't do everything ourselves, like taking care of 33 patients, which I've done before. It's impossible. Teamwork is a must in nursing. That's my opinion. I know that sometimes nur...

How is that? I have every right to do so. Besides, you'll never know. Mabye one day I'll want to be a nurse. People do it all the time on the internet. So stop nagging folly :)

Did you "read the commentary" as well? Geez -_-

My advice, don't sweat it. Trust me, i've felt this feeling before. But at the end of the day, you've done your job, you've done your part, and you get to go home.

Judging from a comment from a "Nurse" and more to come, people, just read everything. Not just my old blog, but my commentary as well. I felt since I'll be going back to being a CNA soon, I felt I needed to reflect from the things I said, and then ad...

Thank you. Especially coming from someone who has something to do with rehab and knows what it's like, I really appreciate it :)

Oh, you're a nurse, as I can see in this blog. Congratulations on getting your license, but it seems to me that you may be that person who doesn't believe in teamwork. It's all good though. I wish you nothing but the best. :)

What? my old article? Yes I was but things change and people grow and learn from it.
