  1. 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...
  2. After 10 years, I'm done.

    Honestly overall, I don't know what to do with my life. I'm lost. I have no direction. I don't know what to
  3. After 10 years, I'm done.

    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...
  4. 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...
  5. 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...
  6. 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...
  7. First over night shift, 2 jobs, in college

    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...
  8. 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...
  9. Float Pool, CNA

    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...
  10. "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...
  11. No longer in my heart/Going back

    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...
  12. Patient Ratio 1:8 and no tech!

    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...
  13. 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...
  14. 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...
  15. I said I wanted to be a nurse, but now I decide not to, after being in the nursing field/being a cna for a long time. Sorry for the confusion.
  16. This is not for debating, but observation. I just want to know to the nurses out there, why do you refuse to help a cna? Why do you not want to show teamwork? Why do you just say no? Again, this is...
  17. To the nurses, a question.

    But i've had nurses that does refuse to help. They just don't want
  18. For the past three weeks, I've been getting the same nurse at work. You see, this nurse always wants me every time we work on the same shift. I feel she always makes sure that she has me with her...
  19. To the nurses, a question.

    I understand that. Completely. But I have been in situations and people have told me that nurses just refuse to help, even if they aren't busy. I just know now that nursing is getting worse, and...
  20. To the nurses, a question.

    That I understand. I'm just asking about the one's who refuse to help even if they aren't
  21. It's Time To Go

    This past year, being a CNA has really opened my eyes to a lot of things. Made me understand how things really work in nursing. From patient care to politics, I've been through it all. Recently, my...
  22. Hi! Today I'm going to praise my hospital for caring about us and expecting us to give great quality care with little of as staff as possible! In fact, I have a story to share. It was a great...
  23. First off, I'm sorry for that rough night. And thanks. I do appreciate the kind words. The main reason why I wrote this post was to inform that this happens WAY too often. Where I work at, the...
  24. From a trusted source, this person actually told me that they look in the budget on the floor and told me that the bosses spend a lot of it on themselves. Is this illegal? Does this happen all the...
