In 1983 I was hired as what they call ( the bath girl ) . I was Help certain responsible to make sure all 50 residents received their baths every week. I feel that I was a great asset to the position , as a lot of the residents would refuse to take baths until they heard about the new girl . They needed to be talked to politely , and with a smile on your face , made a big difference . This position lasted a year , when I was approached by the Boss , and asked if I would be interested in furthering my career in the Boarding home . I was to take a 3day - 8hour a day course on distributing medications to the residents . Took the course and aced it with a 98 average ! This opened the door for me to becoming a certified medications aide . I started the day shift so I could be trained , and then the 3-11 shift for a few weeks , to the 11-7 shift . This shift you are responsible for all the residents care and hourly bed checks . Any special meds. that needed to be given at night . Very eager to learn all that I could led me to being supervisor of what ever shift that I worked . Avery big responsibility . I loved the residents , and we would laugh and talk every day . Some of them where Mentally challenged , or just had no family . I would also sub in the kitchen , if they were short on help . Duties included cooking , setting all the tables , making sure each resident had what they could drink in their dinner spot when they would come to eat . If needed I would help with house keeping also when someone was out sick . I truly loved these jobs ! Working with people is one of my greatest assets . I really enjoy seeing people happy ! I left this job to have my son , and became a stay at home Mom for a few years .
