A.M. Wolf CNA

Greetings everyone! I was looking for recommendations for the best shift work calendar app for Android. I would strongly prefer to pay for it if it means a better app with no advertisements. Any suggestions? Thanks!

TIME MATTERS. Be fast. Be efficient. Get a wristwatch you like. Use it. Always be acutely aware of the time.

Greetings friends & colleagues, I work as a CNA on a dayshift / eveningshift line. My goal is to sleep at least 7 to 8 hours every night. Lately, I am frequently tired, irritable, anxious, and depressed. I think shift work disorder is eating my b...

I did do a search but could not locate anything that I found useful, but perhaps I just wasn't looking right. My problem is that even on eveningshift my body is still on dayshift sleep schedule and I lie awake at 4 am as though I had to get up for a ...

I'm going from dayshift to eveningshift. Usually 2 to 3 days followed by 2 to 3 evenings. My problem is that when I go from days to evenings, my nights sleeping after evenings I still wake up at 4 am and can't get back to sleep again.

Greetings! Dedicated CNA here needing to replace his worn out pair of New Balance walking shoes. I was thinking about just getting another similar pair, but I have the feeling there's probably better shoes out there. I bought the New Balances speci...

Well, first things first. DO NOT HAVE CHILDREN. Humans are an invasive species by every definition, we do not need more help destroying the planet. My feeling that if you did "start a family" you will be less likely to pursue nursing school. Children...

I am not sure. Health care can be a passive aggressive environment, so it might be best to keep your long term career goals just to your friends and family. Competitive? It is competitive, depending upon the school, to be admitted to a nursing progra...

That's a tough one. I can't think of any CNA position that would meet those requirements. I often forget what actual day of the week it is because my schedule is all over the place. Is it possible to temporarily stop being a CNA to focus on school? I...

Are you in the "United" States? Are you a member of a union?

As health care providers, we should always take a humanist perspective and believe in people as people for people. As human understanding grows and changes, so must society along with it. And as the great David Lo Pan said, "You were not brought upon...

I'm not going to ask what exactly you were doing, but it's very very important that we are always on our best and most careful behavior at all times. We cannot afford any criminal charge. That being said, have you spoken to a lawyer about your charge...

That's a tough one. Maybe you could stick up for the residents in a non-confrontational way? Something like, "Oh now Nurse So-and-So, I know you don't mean that! Mrs. Distinguished Resident is a proud of his Japanese heritage!" Mocking residents is n...

1) You can do anything as a hobby, such as writing. If it's a hobby that takes off, good. But it should remain a hobby until then. 2) Be sure that you always have a supply of condoms ready. USE THEM. 3) I wish you greatest success in nursing school! ...

It's been a while since I posted this question, and I'm glad to report that I've gone all digital books and I love it! VitalSource is very good! I'm also thinking about getting a Kindle for regular books :-)

Greeting fellow students! I have a Surface Pro 4 and love it. I've been trying my best to go all digital as it saves a lot of space and keeps me organized. I love marking up PowerPoint slides and OneNote pages with digital ink! Recently I have th...

Greetings everyone! I have Spark & Taylor's Nursing Diagnosis Reference Manual and really like it, but I feel that I need something more and better. So my question, what care planning book or resource could you not do without? What is your favo...

Sadly, most of my instructors seem to be not so digital, rzyzzy

That's what I'm thinking, Purple_roses! My Surface goes almost everywhere with me! They say tougher times in nursing school are yet to come, and I was thinking ahead to what I could do to make things just a little better for me. Thanks again for the ...

Greeting to all of everyone! I hope you are well! I have a few questions you may be able to help out with: 1) What is the best drug guide app? I downloaded Lippincott's (favorite publisher) but wanted to know what people think before I pay ~$30. ...
