Welcome to my job! lol. I'm a CNA and I do that stuff EVERY DAY I work. It's really intimidating at first but you get used to it. Cleaning a bed with a person in it IS hard. And old people with dementia can be annoying. I've been punched, hit, scratched, sworn at, pushed, etc. It's not pretty.

Lucky you though, you're going to be a nurse! The nurses never have to do the dirty work where I work. Being a CNA is good money for me for now, but it's definately not what I want to do the rest of my life. That's why I'm going to school to be higher up in the medical field, hehe.

And throwing things on the floor, pshhh. We all do it :)

Are you going for nursing? I def couldn't be a CNA for the rest of my life. That's hard work. Def why I'm going into nursing.. haha

And yahh.. the instructors just anal. My sister's a CNA and laughed at it, and said everyone does that.

Yeah there's no way I want to be a CNA for the rest of my life, lol.

I was going to school for Nursing but now I'm going to be starting EMT classes in January and go right to Paramedic school after that.

Awww! Thanks! I think it's pretty cool too. Sorta why I came here to UNE cause the programs so fast paced. Normally you dont do this stuff till your Junior year. It's insane.

I give injections in two weeks to people! How insane? I just learned todayyy! YIKES!! haha
