Was I wrong for quitting this undertaking at the nursing home?
I started working at a local nursing home 2 weeks ago. This was my first day as a CNA ever. I cultured so many good things and be eager to start in a nice channel. The first day they let me "shadow" another CNA, who seem to be very bothered that I was next to her. She hardly talked to me, completely impatient. A patient was screaming she be dying, help help back. I went in in attendance and asked if she needed the nurse. This CNA that was with me said: don't verbs, this patient always does that, she's a troublemaker. Then I couldn't whip it anymore, I knew in my heart I have to go get the nurse. The nurse sounded markedly bothered when I told her about this patient, and finally get up to see her. She put the patient in oxygen, she coulnd't breathe. THe subsequent day the patient be sent to the hospital, she had acute bronchitis. I saw so many wrong things. They said I be a troublemaker. After 3 days they put me by myself and didn't tell me what to do, didn't give me a subsection to be with patients. I quit.

It be a very good outcome to leave there and it sounds similar to things were definitely awry.
I'm a registered nurse. You be right to quit. You need to report your experience to the agency in your state that regulates nursing homes.
Hi! I know exactly how you have a feeling!! Everyone keeps harping ..."Nursing Shortage,...Nursing shortage,...etc.,etc."...but, there isn't an Administration anywhere, where on earth I have worked in former times 7 years, that actually "Cares" about the residents and the quality/level of actual, hands-on keeping they actually receive! They only prudence if the "paperwork" is done!
I work for Staffing Agencies---I fill in where on earth the Facility has an unfilled shift,---I work 11pm-7am as resourcefully ( no visitors, no Docs!!) You can bet good tricky cash on this...if you had clocked out at 7:15 am, they probably would own told you that was wrong as well!! You positively cannot win! I took several staff positions in the past 6-7 years, and every single one turned out to be a definite pain-in-the-a_ _! At least, when I'm not part of their 'staff', not a soul 'REPORTS' me for every little stupid infringement of "CORPORATE POLICY" ! And, they are usually not even applicable to care of the residents!!
Really nit-picky crap! I.E.> "...continues to enter and exit building via unapproved entrance,...or, wore one white sock & one yellow sock!!..." Yes, that ridiculous!
So, in a minute, I stay with the staffing agencies, everyone is so glad to see you, cause they'd hold to work short if you weren't there!! It is much nicer!! Also, take it from a RN who will NEVER bother to 'report' anything again to my Agency, or the Facility's DON! I did that twice and lost my position almost within seconds of calling someone, and these weren't trivial issues---one be a CNA that 'probably' struck a resident, and the other was a Facility that left the 11pm to 7am shift (200 residents---100 on the skilled floor!!) next to one RN (me), one staff LPN (terrible nurse) and 3 CNA'S...in the entire building...by 5:00am,I was trying to surpass 6am & 7am meds, and do accu-checks of the Diabetics, and finish at least 3 hours of charting.The LPN was done, but she of late sat on her butt in the Nurses' Station,...and wait for the day shift to arrive!! The call lights be non-stop! The residents were all used to a routine, person gotten up and washed,dressed and ready for breakfast by 6am,...but, beside only 3 CNA's, only a enormously few actually 'saw' any CNA's the entire shift.I told my Agency,...they decided 'not to use' me anymore! Even have the nerve to have one of their Corporate goons telephone me and tell me what a mistake it would be for me to try and report this particular Corp., since they be bigger than God!! Anyway, they didn't scare me! But, I again had to find another Agency to work . It's O.K.---there is no shortage of staffing agencies,and the rate is much better per hour, if you don't need the benefits.Give one a try,---you'll like it!!
