Now, on the other hand:

Housekeeper--we have none on nights.

Patient advocate--no management on nights.

Secretary--we have none.

Nurse assistant--we have none.

Dietary aide--we have to collect orders and pick them up from the cafeteria.

Medical Record clerk--we have to tear down charts and put them in order.

Telephone switchboard operator--they send calls to us to give to pt's.

Security--not a closed unit.

Fire squad--we have to take a fire extinguisher to the floor where the Code Red is called!

We wear many hats in nursing!

I meant official job titles where your pay stubs say's your a CNA or RN.
