  1. Account Frozen

    Hi, Recently my account was frozen on Nursa due to a No Call No Show. The day I was scheduled for a shift I did have car troubles and contacted the scheduler, notifying them that my car was stalled and wouldn’t be able to make it to the shift. They listed me as a no call no show and I can’t request any shifts. I do have screenshots available of notifying the scheduler that I won’t be there and them saying it was fine and acknowledging that I wouldn't be able to make it to my shift. Is there any way I can reverse this? Please and thank you!

  7. Language Barriers

    How do you communicate with clients who speak another language? I never know what is appropriate when you can't communicate with someone but can't find a translator and need to communicate an idea that could affect their overall health.

One night, I was working on the LTC unit at a facility where I frequently picked up shifts, so I had developed a good rapport with the residents and the staff. I check on a resident who had their call light on. He was looking for Robert, his CNA, to change his colostomy bag. Although I offered to do it, he declined. It was quite a relief for me, but not for the reason one might expect.
