Pros
PSHR has a wide variety of patients, so as a CNA you get to learn a lot and get experience with patients from pediatric to geriatric ages.
Cons
The hospital was often understaffed and made CNAs take on more patients that was safe. When I was hired for the hospital we only had 6 patients , however once I worked for a while the patient load increased up to 8-12 patients depending on staff. They also expect you to lift huge patients without lifting equipment. Nursing staff was told by therapy that patients were able to assist with transfers, however when actually helping the patients, it was frequently total assist of 2-3 people.
