Specializes in NICU.

Has 11 years experience.

I'm lpn night shift at a SNF. Two CNAs were changing a resident together, and afterwards one of them reported to me that the other CNA was very rough with the resident and stated she was "throwing her around". I'm so upset by this. I mean, I'm upset that one of these fragile elderly people could possibly be hurt by someone they trusted. I emailed the DON, she will see it in a few hours after we get off and she's gonna want a statement from the CNA that witnessed the behavior. My question is, was I wrong not to confront her? I'm fairly new at this, been an lpn for less than a year and this is the only job I've had as a nurse. Is there any way the accusation is not true? What am I supposed to do in this situation? It happened at 430 in the morning. I'm just so upset!

Well, I think the question here is - what exactly have YOU personally witnessed/seen? Second hand info may not be enough. You should try to find time to work with this aide, and see for yourself how she handles the patients.

You should have ask accused how she handles residents, asked the accuser what she meant by rough, and then you should have assessed the resident head to toe. "..throwing her around" would most likely have created a bruise or some sort of redness.
Always always err on the side of protecting the resident.
Being new isn't really an excuse in this situation. You don't need to witness something first hand to act on it.

An update on the situation. I assessed resident, didn't see any physical damage. DON acted on the report, got a written statement from the accuser and mailed to corporate or the state or whoever handles such things. She and managers also spoke with resident and residents roommate and determined what accuser said was true. CNA marked off the schedule. I just feel horrible that the whole situation happened! I hate this.

I don't know what state you're in, but most have set regulations on how to deal with abuse. If your facility takes Medicare and Medicaid, you MUST have a written policy. Next time you are at work, you might want to review the policy.

Matt Vera is a registered nurse with a bachelor of science in nursing since 2009 and is currently working as a full-time writer and editor for Nurseslabs. During his time as a student, he knows how frustrating it is to cram on difficult nursing topics. Finding help online is nearly impossible. His situation drove his passion for helping student nurses by creating content and lectures that are easy to digest. Knowing how valuable nurses are in delivering quality healthcare but limited in number, he wants to educate and inspire nursing students. As a nurse educator since 2010, his goal in Nurseslabs is to simplify the learning process, break down complicated topics, help motivate learners, and look for unique ways of assisting students in mastering core nursing concepts effectively.

Now retired from nursing but this made me chuckle and reminisce on the good , the bad, and the ridiculous!
Still trying to get to sleep after my 3rd night in a row. Last night my 12 hr night shift turned into 17 hrs…..got home, decontaminated under the hot shower, took 800mg of ibuprofen for my splitting h/a and back pain, laid down and heard in my head 100 call lights going off spontaneously, vents alarming and tele monitors dinging everytime the patient moves or a lead popped off.
As if that weren’t enough brain overstimulation, my phone dinged…… the hospital’s house supervisor asked me to work tonight because there was a call-in….OMG I wish I would’ve seen the “Negative 4 Degrees” meme before I responded, ‘sorry, I have plans’….. Like eating a proper meal, elevating my swollen feet and getting rid of my N95 masks outline on my face, all the while drinking my wine straight from the bottle.
The next text I get from the Nsg Sup is gonna get a pic of that meme instead 😉
Working as a Med-Surg Nurse. I was often floated to ER, ICU, Psych, and Rehab. Thanks no problem 😀
Then one day I was told that I needed to float to OBgyn. I absolutely will not float to OBGyn.
I told my Supervisor. I am giving you my 2-second notice effective immediately. I don’t do women screaming and shooting bodily fluids and then babies shoot out from women’s bodies. The miracle of birth is amazing the first 3-5 times you witness it. After that, it is just too loud and extremely messy.

For the days that you just need a little motivation to get through your shift, or you don’t know whether to laugh or cry, sometimes, a perfectly-placed nursing quote might be just the thing you need to keep going.
Or maybe you’re a nursing student wondering how on earth you will find the strength to make it through the rest of the semester, when hearing a nursing quote for students will completely change your perspective. Nursing school, in my honest opinion, was even harder than my years as a “real” nurse. The crippling self-doubt, the not-knowing-where-you-fit-in, the studying while working night shift--it was all rough. So you definitely need a few of these inspirational quotes to get you through nursing school.
And, of course, there are some days when you just have to find a funny nursing quote because really, the only thing to do is find humor in the situation. After all, we all know nurses have the best sense of humor, right? Here are all the inspirational, funny, and moving nursing quotes you could ask for.

10. “I’m not telling you it’s going to be easy. I’m telling you it’s going to be worth it.” — Art Williams
1. “It’s the new nurses who aren’t scared that worry me”--every nursing instructor ever (and they’re right!)

3. “As a nurse, we have the opportunity to heal the mind, soul, heart, and body of our patients, their families, and ourselves. They may forget your name, but they will never forget how you made them feel.” – Maya Angelou

5. “Trust yourself. You know more than you think you do.” – Benjamin Spock
6. “Confidence is not ‘they will like me,’ confidence is “I’ll be fine if they don’t.” Successful people have fear, successful people have doubts, and successful people have worries. They just don’t let these feelings stop them.” – T. Harv Eker
