You know you're a CNA if...
Sorry I'm late posting guys, it's been a long hard week, to be honest. This week's post is a list of ways that identify you as a true CNA, composed by myself and a few coworkers. Enjoy! :)
You know you're a CNA if:
- You tell your kids where their food is on the plate by comparing it to the face of a clock
- you dream about the call lights going off
- you want gloves on anytime you clean up a mess
- people ask you any medical question and expect you to know the answer
- you stop to use every anti-bacterial station in a public place out of habit
- you can diagnose someone by their BM
- you can eat a candy bar with one hand while talking about BMs and other bodily functions without feeling nauseous
- you can laugh about someone pooping in the shower, pottying into their water carafe, etc.
- you can get 6-8 people in bed in an hour
- you call roommates, friends, neighbors, and even people older than you hun or sweetheart out of habit
- you are convinced deafness, Alzheimers, etc. are contagious, because suddenly you have every problem your patients have
- you can hold your bladder without peeing your pants or doing the potty dance for hours on end while listening to every old lady in the building take a bathroom break every 5 minutes
- you see a bright spotlight in a store (ie: Kohls) and mistake it for a call light
- your decision of a second date is based on how he reacts to hearing about your career
- a patient calling you names or swearing causes uncontrollable giggling
- you can talk to 80 year olds but not 20 year olds
- Being hit on by men who could be your grandfather no longer rattles you
