I'm a CNA and no matter what the stars are the health care field is hurting in every aspect. Each home gets a certain patient to aide ratio and we all do our best to make sure all of our residents are clean, fed well, and taken care of as far as nutrition. Sometimes us aids have 12 people to take care of at once to get them up out of bed for lunch at least and back into bed according to how long the resident can be out of bed in a timely manner. Care isn't about money or how much richer the community is. That's a fact we all have to deal w/. Not the star ratings. Thank You!

You know what would solve nursing home issues? Pass out joints to the old farts, and they'll be a much happier crowd.

Personally I want to livce forever in a nursing home, having liberals wiping my a** for me, and cleaning up my puke. I love it! There's nothing I like more than having my diaper changed, and once I'm in a nursing home I won't have to pay a hooker $50 to do it either.

Daily Horoscope for May 24

Scorpio

Someone needs some advice today and you're just the person to give it. Wait to be asked, though! You'll be able to draw on your experiences of life, and you might also throw in some spiritual guidance for good measure. If you have some spare time you'll enjoy immersing yourself in a thought-provoking book and then discussing it with someone who's on your wavelength.
