Countdown to the next username change

[Silver]

What I have seen from my first night at the new facility:

---

Laundry doesn't provide enough clean linen for overnight shift. Been there before, which is usually something that never changes if it's a norm within the facility. It should not be much of an issue for me since the way I work with multiple rounds usually ensures I rarely have to do a complete bed change. (Except maybe for one guy, his bowel movements are rather sordid)

I'm uncertain how the other aids work, except for the one with whom I was training, but it looks as though this is one of those places where the overnight aids only do the one round in the morning at end of shift. At least this was the case with the one who trained me, which was obviously why there were wet beds. She's a nice person, she's great with the residents, but her work ethic needs a bit amping.

Upon reflection, I did have an encounter with another aid only because that person's resident was calling out for help after the call light was being unanswered. It was my first night of training, and I just wanted to see how others operated, so I didn't answer call lights of residents who weren't mine. Apparently, aids don't answer their own call lights either. Had to tell the other aid, after answering the call to help, that the resident was upset because she was sitting on a wet bed.

The nurses were just themselves, nothing out of the ordinary.

That was on the long term care side of the facility.

Tonight, I get to see how the short term care side operates.
