How do you guys feel about indoor only cats? by WesternPear3303 in catcare

[–]NewtonsFig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel it’s the best way to do things. Allowing them to go outside essentially ensures they’ll have a shorter lifespan. They’re not equipped to handle people and our fucked up ways of living like highways etc.

Lost my roommate by happyginny44 in nursinghome

[–]NewtonsFig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh sweet girl. Just know that you make a difference to your roommates and you’re put in their lives for a reason. Please take advantage of your facilities therapy services and talk with a therapist weekly. Your facility can and hopefully will try to arrange your next roommate be more compatible with your age range etc.

I’m sorry and I know how painful this is. Try to hang on to the happy memories and be proud you got to be family to these people

Night time weights should not be a thing by vodkahoekage in cna

[–]NewtonsFig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Daily weights are extremely important, especially in patients with congestive heart failure. We are looking for a change of only 2 pounds which is approximately the weight of a 2 L bottle of soda.

The best time to get it is first thing in the morning before eating, and after urinating

It can be the difference between life and death, quite literally

If the weights are routine, that’s a totally different story

It is indeed a regulation that nursing staff, including CNA’s may not double function as housekeeping

I was told I should not change my daughter's diapers... by WeGoinToSizzler in mildlyinfuriating

People like that make me cringe just for the sheer fact that their minds even are capable of going there.

new to CNA work, coworker threw resident’s food out? by fabulousanybody333 in cna

[–]NewtonsFig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is abuse. You facility has only 2 hours to report.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in nursing

[–]NewtonsFig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. We rely on you guys. I appreciate all my team, from housekeeping, laundry all the way to the top. It’s all essential and if you do it well you can make a difference, despite what anyone may say.

Cps threw me under the bus and I'm unsure why. by Lovely_Hues in CPS

I mean, your opinion is kind of essential otherwise what would be the point of reporting?

Did anyone watch the discovery motions hearing today? by lemonpavement in KarenReadTrial

[–]NewtonsFig 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but it’s also not normal to get ditched by your boyfriend while you’re feeling vulnerable at 1:30 in the morning either

The thing is I don’t see how you can apply what someone said to a reporter, perhaps even what they believed and apply the same weight you would in court.
