I have just started a new job at an assisted living facility.:angryfire Do they only hire totally untrained staff or what? We usually only have 4-6 patients that have to have vital signs done. The aides tell me things like " I didn't know I was suppose to take a pulse too. I didn't know I was suppose to take a temperature too. Yesterday, I tried to give a 5 minute inservice about vital signs. I was verbally attacked before I could finish my inservice. I was told by the aide that she was very busy and couldn't get vital signs done by 11am. This aide expects all the nurses to "beg her over and over to get the vital signs done" I'm not going to play this game with her. I finally got angry and told her that I was going to write her up if vital signs were not done by 11am. Everyone else is able to get their vital signs done by 11am. What is wrong with these people anyway?:trout:
