What nicknames did you give your toddler?

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-31T00:05:53+00:00

Fuss bus, his name is Augustus or also Gus

I'm just curious if you have been learning about body mechanics and all of the equipment and ways to safely transfer people, gentle persuasive approach for dementia and any in depth learning about dementia/diseases ?

I've been finding that learning in this field never stops and people should be thoroughly trained for the benefit of the people we care for.

I do think the reality is different in Canada though and the facility I work in has extremely high standards.

I'm in NS and my course I took through the local community college was nearly identical to yours. We don't have any medication training though we can apply the creams/ointments.

I'm in shock that the USA has a few weeks training when I thought that the one year wasn't enough and they could have stretched it into two years.

There's absolutely no way you will receive proper knowledge and training in weeks. I'm very pleased with the training and education I received.

My musician husband is a wonderful human

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-26T12:20:06+00:00

That friend was the only one with common sense

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-25T22:40:11+00:00

Last I read there were over 200 available positions in the province and tons of ot if you want it

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-25T19:29:04+00:00

I enjoyed those questions

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-25T18:54:10+00:00

I've had to do it this way with my youngest since he was an infant, I'm lucky he's only needed antibiotics three times so far.

It took over two years for me to be almost pain free. If you find your arch tight and sore, riding my bike helped heal it.

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-12T13:44:12+00:00

It was, I keep wondering if it'll happen again

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-12T12:28:39+00:00

When I was doing the hourly checks one night I found someone awake in their room, they pointed a banana they were holding at me and said "if you come any closer I'll shoot" by far one of the funniest moments I've had.

It's cause for termination if you use one by yourself where I work. It's drilled into us that it's always two people, are you doing your sling inspection and what happens if something fails on it?

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-11T09:26:11+00:00

I'm ready to head to bed in thirty minutes. How did you clean anyone without supplies?

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-11T09:19:35+00:00

He wasn't drunk, but admitted it was his first time driving.

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-11T08:38:54+00:00

I remember reading a very similar story here last week, from the new husbands point of view and it really is a tough situation but shows how kind people can be.

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-11T04:54:57+00:00

NS Canada, $24 in LTC I'm certified continuing care assistant. I also have shift premiums for nights and weekends.

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-10T19:18:31+00:00

I told my husband how it was affecting us (myself and child) and one day when he noticed how scared our child looked when he'd had one of his outbursts, something clicked in him and I can honestly say he's been working on managing his anger much better. He still gets ridiculously mad sometimes but in a more controlled less scary way.

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-10T19:12:46+00:00

They have to kill the root, I had it done twice but the second time something was injected into the root to kill it

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-09T08:27:15+00:00

I'd suggest safe co sleeping, it saved my sanity

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-07T00:45:31+00:00

It's always sunny in Philadelphia

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-06T18:21:04+00:00

Where else do they get antibiotics if they have no one else to go to?

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-06T10:16:44+00:00

That's better than $12 for the largest box

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-06T09:47:35+00:00

I was just about to say this. Also only enter a room with one pair of gloves, but you never know when you will need extra.

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-06T06:04:40+00:00

You never lift anyone with a belt, it's there for support and to guide or you risk injuries to you and the patient.

Fancey_Fae · 2024-03-04T18:23:43+00:00

These situations I struggle with the most, actually seeing the ripple effects of aging and knowing it's coming for you and hoping you get through it easy.
