   Oh my. You had me at Dr Who. I love that show......along with some boneless, buffalo wings and bleu cheese...or potato chips....and peanut M&M's (I save the dark brown ones for

4. Non-FIT Nurses and FIT Nurses

   GoofyBlondeChic replied to trinitymaster's topic in General Nursing

   Oh my geezers. I love that stuff on Youtube. I could watch them popping cysts, lancing boils and extracting blackheads for hours on end. I have no idea why I find it so

7. I am NOT a Nurse...

   GoofyBlondeChic replied to GoofyBlondeChic's topic in General Nursing

   Wow, I had no idea that this would bring so many responses; but I am glad that it did. Rest assured that I do not work outside of my scope of practice nor do I even remotely consider myself a Nurse. I...

8. What grosses you out?

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

   I think that now the only thing that makes me gag is the smell of C-Diff stools. Though I do remember, being sent to a hall where a resident was actively in the process of passing. I have a few things...

9. Preparing for resident death

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

   I think that Southern said it best; you just love them through it. It does get easier as each one passes. In time you'll even find a moment to laugh about something silly that one of your deceased...

10. CNA Question

    GoofyBlondeChic replied to andrearositas88's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I can honestly say that you do get used to it. Some good advice my instructors told me about was to use Vicks Vaporub in your nostrils. I didn't really need it past the first few days, as I generally...

11. Does. Anyone like their CNA job??

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

    I love my job as a CNA. I work in Home Healthcare myself and it seems to fit me best. I worked from 2008-2012 in LTC and hated almost every minute of it. I couldn't stand the 'herd' mentality that was...

12. I am NOT a Nurse...

    GoofyBlondeChic replied to GoofyBlondeChic's topic in General Nursing

    MrChicago. I can say that he has his moments. According to his care plan he is A&O3. He has been more forgetful lately. I like the Goofy part. It's definitely descriptive of my personality.

13. I am NOT a Nurse...

    GoofyBlondeChic replied to GoofyBlondeChic's topic in General Nursing

    I do correct my client and he says that he understands. But he calls me his nurse because I see him more than his real nurse does. It does drive me nuts though. Should I pursue it by the higher ups,...

14. I am NOT a Nurse...

    GoofyBlondeChic posted a topic in General Nursing

    Greetings all. I have a weird question for ya'll. I work in Home Healthcare as a CNA and often my clients call me a Nurse. I have no idea why, but it irks me. I don't even remotely consider myself a...

15. Is it even worth it anymore?

    GoofyBlondeChic replied to trebleclefmama's topic in Nursing Career

    Hi Trebleclef. I'm a newbie on the board and am only a CNA. But what I can say is; I think it's worth it, if it's something that you want bad enough. When we lose a family member, it changes who we...
