I don't want to rely on it like someone who I know that is 70, and she still does it. I want to move forward. I want to ADVANCE. I know I am worth more than being a maid. If that is the case I will have to find something else to do.
You are righ...
Here we go. I've been a nursing assistant ever since 2012; almost 10 years. At that time I have worked at a rehab facility and as a physical therapy tech at the hospital. I've been there for over 6 years. Then I transferred to the OR department as a ...

I am in florida. I found it thanks to God, and the fact that I was already in the hospital. But it took me a few months to find it which was sad on their part. My advice keep looking and get your foot in the door.
Hi! It's been a long time since I have posted on here, and I wanted to share my experiences on my current job as a SNA. I have to say this is the best Nursing Assistant job I ever have. I thought I would just be cleaning beds, stocking stuff, and hel...
I was just hired to work as a surgical nursing assistant in the cath lab at my hospital and I'm very excited to start. Thing is I have never worked in the cath lab before, but I have worked as a nursing assistant on other floors. What are the job d...

I will admit, the first night will be the worst one. I could barely keep my eyes opened before the end of the shift. What made it worse was that I had to take the bus home, and I had to walk a mile to the bus stop lol. Don't be afraid to ask question...
Good news! After a long week delay since my phone interview, they called and said that they want to interview me for the position. For me, it's going to be easy because the position is at the same place I work at, so mostly I will have a better chanc...
I have been trying to find a full time job right now, but really no luck. I have tried places from surgery, to central sterile tech, to even an environmental aide, but still I get denied. What's funny is that I have had 7 years experience working at ...

Males not being apprenticed enough in healthcare. I am one of the only males who works at the unit and who works harder than an average CNA. I don't know much about males not being praised, but me in general whatever I do doesn't really matter to any...

That's how it is. I am a CNA and I can tell you things like this is growing in healthcare. Just do what you can. If people don't want to listen and make changes, do what you can until you had enough and find a different job.
"Where do you see yourself in five years?" That's what my boss told me during an job interview for a CNA position in 2012. It was my first job, my first real job at a hospital, in a rehab unit. This was my first post-https://allnurses.com/cna-ma-nur...

Thanks for the kind words. I didn't mean to put it like that. I just thought being a cna was part of the nursing field. I guess not. And no, I don't see myself being a nurse. There's too much to know and I don't feel knowing all that knowledge is a g...
I know. To most people, it sounds crazy. Some people may be thinking, why would you leave a job that pays well? Why would you lower your standards? Believe me, I did put those points into consideration. I knew I wouldn't be making a lot of money. My ...
