Finished with Clinicals

Clinicals are officially over. Michael says it was a very eye-opening experience. I'd have to agree. There are definitely things I wont miss, like the sounds and smells associated with assisting residents to the bathroom or commode and looking at the pureed garbage food. One little lady has the bad habit of grinding her teeth. Man, does it make the squeakiest and most irritating sound! I didn't know teeth could even make that noise. However, I will forever miss seeing my favorite peeps. Hearing their great histories, and listening to their loud laughter. Now all is left is our Idaho CNA written and practical test. Wish us luck!

Summer School

We are taking a CNA course this summer at CSI. So far it has been a good break from work. We are hoping this will help Michael's RadTech application. Plus it will give us both experience in the medical field and hopefully make it a lot easier to find a good job in Boise when we move back. This week we start clinical at Parke View. It should be an adventure. Peri care is about to get even more embarrassing than it was on the manikins. I'm sure we'll have some interesting stories to share soon.
