Which of the following statements made by a nurse assistant signals a bad attitude?
  1. “Can you repeat the steps in changing the urinary bag? It’s my first time doing it.”
  2. “I work harder than anyone else.”
  3. “I’m taking my break now. I’ll be back after 15 minutes.”
  4. “I may need some assistance in changing the resident’s diaper.”
Explanation
Answer: B - This statement demonstrates that the nurse assistant is complaining about her job obligations. Conflicts at work should be dealt with through proper channels, not by complaining in front of co-workers. The other options are appropriate statements. Be honest in doing a procedure for the first time and clarify matters if you do not understand the instructions. By informing another co-worker during your break time, you are ensuring continuity of care and client safety. Asking for help in performing a procedure is also encouraged. Do not assume that you can carry it out all by yourself. You may place the client in a compromised situation.
