Business Outlook
Pros
The hospital is very modern and efficient. There are many excellent nurses and charge nurses. Teamwork is great with the other CNAs and the level of independence to perform ones job is nice too. Opportunity to change departments or train for ward clerk is available.
Cons
As a CNA, you should be accustomed to the bottom of the totem pole. Patient ratios are always on the high side, many RNs assume you are dumb, and prepare to be floated around without a say. Staffing will call you on every one of your days off, and watch out because sometimes they will change your schedule without notice.
