I just became a Certified Nursing Assistant at a nursing home in February 2010. I’ve been working for about 2 months now and trying to get everything done at a reasonable hour, but I was called into my Unit Manager’s office today and was told that I’m not getting people up on time. I’m supposed to get everything done by 10:00am, but I got the last person up at 11:45am today. I can’t seem to get everything done by the time they need. My time management is terrible. I was told that I will have to change shifts (I’m currently on morning shift, so I would change to evening shift or night shift). I’ve wondered if I am not meant to be a nursing assistant and my U.M. told me she thinks the same. It was so hard to hear, but she meant very well. She’s been very patient with me and has stood up for me in the past.

I hate the fact that I can’t get everything done. I’m too detail oriented which means I’m spending WAY more time on things that I shouldn’t be. 😦 Please pray for me that I can either improve my time, or that the shift change will make things easier. The other alternative would be to move to a different position (non-nursing) within the nursing home.
 
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with Thee.
Blessed art Thou among women,
and Blessed is the Fruit
of Thy Womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death.
Amen
 
DaughterofMary i’ll offer a rosary for you. God bless and keep you!

Heavenly Father we praise you for your wondrous grace and power. You are all mighty and have an everlasting love. Grant that DaughterofMary’s prayers be answered and that she may find your love and grace in her place of work. This we ask through Christ our Lord Amen.
 
I will pray for you, but honestly two months doesn’t seem long enough to get into your “grove” on the job. You may be being too hard on yourself. As for getting caught up in the details, maybe you could ask to “shadow” someone else on the same shift to see how they get it done on time.

Good luck.

Kick back and think what you want. If you want to keep the morning shift then make your priorty to get the residents that your are incharge of up on time. I don’t know how many you have to get up but I know you can manage your time better. If you know you are doing things you shouldn’t be then stop doing them. Stick to what your job is and when you have time then do the other things.
Father, Please give her the means necessary to manage her time. She is doing your work which is to help others. But what ever happens its your will. You know what is best for her and if its to change shifts the give her the ability to accept it.
 
O Lord, Holy Father, omnipotent and eternal God, I give You thanks and I bless Your holy name. I know I’m a poor miserable sinner but hear a cause that is just, turn your ear to my prayer. Amen

Prayers for your intentions….

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy Kingdom come; Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with Thee. Blessed art Thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of Thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now, and at the hour of our death. Amen.

O my Jesus, forgive us our sins. Save us from the fires of Hell; lead all souls into Heaven, especially those in most need of Thy mercy. Amen.

Lord Jesus, hear my prayers. Amen

“If God brings it to you- God will bring you through it.”
 
Ave Maria,
Gratia plena, dominus tecum.
Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui,
Jesus.
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc et in ora mortis nostrae,
Amen! :signofcross:
 
Heavenly Father, whose blessed Son came not to be served but to serve: Bless our sister who, following in his steps, gives herself to the service of others; that with wisdom, patience, and courage, she may minister in his Name to the suffering, the friendless, and the needy; for the love of him who laid down his life for us, your Son our Savior Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

God, teach me to be patient,
teach me to go slow,
Teach me how to wait on You
when my way I do not know.
Teach me sweet forbearance
when things do not go right
so I remain unruffled
when others grow uptight.
Teach me how to quiet my racing, rising heart
so I might hear the answer
You are trying to impart.
Teach me to let go, dear God,
and pray undisturbed
until my heart is filled with inner peace
and I learn to know your will.
Amen
 
Everything is going much better. I’m getting things done quicker and not spending so much time talking to my residents (which used to eat up a lot of my time). I prioritize my tasks and see what should be done first. I’m still working on getting my time up to par and I keep checking in with my Unit Manager if I have a problem. I’m praying she sees my dedication to this job and allows me to remain on the current shift instead of moving. Thank you all for your prayers. 😉
