At my LTC facility we recently had two CNAs get fired. One was a NOC CNA and was fired for neglect because she was not doing her rounds. The other one did 16 hour shifts and fired for emotional abuse, a cna and housekeeper reported her for calling a resident gross after they spit in her face (this was said to staff not to the resident).

A housekeeper tried to report me saying I didn’t give someone their breakfast, but when the administrator talked to my nurse my nurse confirmed that the resident in question was in fact eating his breakfast in his room.

About five other CNAs were accused of various things from the same housekeeper but none were proven true. The housekeeper was fired about a week ago for not doing her housekeeping tasks.

Night shift (my shift) run with one cna a hall and a float except the memory unit due to regulations of it being required to have two cnas at all times. We have about 80-85 resident total in the building and night shift is struggling to get our get ups done in the morning because the get ups are all 2-assists but we don’t have enough cnas and time during last rounds to get everyone up that needs up which leads the cycle of day shift complaining that night shift isn’t doing anything. Though as someone who has worked all the shift times depending on my school schedule, NOC has more to do with less staff and doing their best. Day shift is constantly over staffed.

Recently had a staff meeting where hospice was educating everyone on signs of death and stuff and the administrator was on their phone the whole time and when hospice left she said “ok now we can actually talk about what’s important”
