Will I Get Fired And/or Should I Quit? (cna’s Only Respond Please)?

CNAGuide — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 22:25:29 +0000

Today was my first day working as a cna, and I keep worrying that I did a bad job. I tried my hardest but I just kept feeling like I didn’t do good. One of the residents that I was with got a skin tear. I helped her get dressed than she wanted to walk around with her walker, so I went with her. When I started to walk with her I noticed that she had a skin tear on her hand. It was pretty small. So I told someone and the LPN came and fixed it up. The CNA who was working with me and training me, told me that I’d have to fill out an incident report. But then she filled one out and told me that she was going to do it instead since she said she was in the room with her just before I was and also because I was in training so she would fill it out. Anyway I just felt like maybe I will get fired or something since I am the one that noticed the skin tear. The cna told me not too worry that skin tears happen all the time there. I don’t know if that is true or not , maybe she was just trying to make me feel better. It freaked me out because I’ve never seen that happen. I just don’t know what to think. It was my first day, so it probably looks bad, even though I have no idea how that even happened. Will they think that I did that to her and fire me? Wasn’t I supposed to fill out the incident report? I am just so lost, I am afraid of messing up or having an accident and one of the residents getting hurt. I try to be very careful with them, but I am just worried. I don’t know, should I just quit, I mean I don’t want to get blamed for something. No one seemed like they were blaming me, they were all really nice, but what if they try to blame me later? What should I do?

Cna Certificate And Being Fired….?

CNAGuide — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 10:25:14 +0000

As I said in other post I was working there for 4yrs and up until April I wasn’t a CNA.. I was hired without certificate because I was certified at one time.. After 3 yrs I was told to get re-certified to keep my job so I spent the $700+ and took the training and passed all testing and got legally certified as a CNA in April 2006…was fired in Sept 2006. Now because I was fired does this get noted @ nurse aide registry or is it just like being fired any place else…stealing medications or physically abusing someone would cause an investigation through the state and a judgement to be made. Seperation reasons were listed as :failure to work as team player failure to finish work failure to treat residents w/respect,dignity & safely. None of these accusations are true…I can give potential new jobs resident and co-workers as references from job I was fired from which I plan to do. How hard will it be to get new job? Can I just check don’t contact & tell them to contact residents&staff?

Got In Touch With My Crush After Three Years?!!?!?!?

CNAGuide — Thu, 27 May 2010 22:26:56 +0000

Okay, so when I was in the army, my drill sergeant was totally amazing and so gorgous. I have since been out of the military since may of last year. It has been three years and I still cant stop thinking about him. Of course I never told him and I wouldnt why I was in the Army, because I couldn’t. But, I decided to write him the other day and he wrote back.. What do you think I should respond? Does he sound interested? Thank you!
Hey , it’s really nice to hear from you. Wow, it has been along time.Congratulation on your daughter. Yea I understand about leaving the Army. It’s hard being a single parent. The good thing is your a CNA and going to nursing school.believe it or not I still think back about me being a DS and all the PVTs I trained.But what I really remember is all the hard work and believing that all the Mad Dogs did. I will never forget and that means you too. Well I’m sorry this is short but I have to get back to work. E-mail me again soon. Sincerely, Rick
Please no rude comments. This means A LOT to me…

Why Do Parents Do This To Kids? It Doesn’t Seem Fair Or Right To Me…?

CNAGuide — Thu, 27 May 2010 04:25:42 +0000

In the pet sections, you see a lot of kids getting on here saying their pet is dying but their parents won’t take it to the vet, and they want to know what to do. Majority of the time, there’s nothing they cna do but get it to a vet.
Or they put ridiculous expectations on the child in regards to the animal and threaten taking the pet away if they can’t solve an issue (fleas, but wont buy flea meds, expecting an 8 wk old puppy to be house trained, etc).
What is up with that? It just seems so cruel to do to a child!

What Kinds Of Jobs Are Available In The Health Care Field?

CNAGuide — Wed, 26 May 2010 22:27:52 +0000

I am currently a P.C.A. I work at a hospital in a med/surg unit. I am trained/certified to do phlebotomy. I like my job and am good at it but know that working in Neurology/Orthopedics isn’t my thing.
I have always done some sort of care….first with children, working as a CNA in a nursing home (I really liked), then working with MRDD adults in their homes, and lastly at the hospital where I am currently employed.
My husband found out yesterday that he has Degenerative Disk Disease and I feel like I need to re-evaluate my financial situation in case he can no longer help to provide. I have been told that I would make a good nurse but I’m not sure that I have the book smarts to do it. What options do I have in the health care field? We are in our late 20′s and have 2 kids so securing our future is important but I want a job that I like.
