I am currently in the process of petitioning to a technical college for the nursing program. There is nothing in their requirements or information about letters of recommendation. I work at a hospital as a nursing assistant, should I ask the nurses I work with and current professors for recommendation? I'm not sure if the school I'm applying to even accepts them or not. Thanks!

I'm not complaining of doing these tasks. I usually go above and beyond. It's just a little concerning to me when 13 patients havnt had proper charting on any cares or urine outputs. Foleys not being emptied and having greater than 2100mLs in it. I mean I've had 18 patients by myself with 2 other nurses and I was able to pass waters, do vitals, clean their rooms, stock their rooms and wash them all up. When my floor is always clean and organized it's hard to go to a floor that is not.

I am a CNA and I work on a med surg floor with mainly medical patients. Our second floor med surg unit is mainly surgical patients. I got floated to the second floor and I noticed a lot of issues. There were multiple patients not charted on their urine output and activity. One patient had 2100 mLs out on their foley and it wasnt emptied since 8 hours prior the time I emptied it. Every room I went into was messy and their garabages were all full. Should I email my manager. About the things I experienced without giving names or blaming anyone. I feel like I'm snitching but I also feel guilty if I don't say anything.
