      I’m a new grad and accepted a position at a LTC facility. It’ll be 34 patients that I have to pass meds for teatments and orders for 12 hrs. There’s no treatment nurse, CNAs don’t take vits or blood sugars. I feel overwhelmed. I’ve had 3 days of orientation and two more and I’m supposed to be on my own but truth is I’m terrified. Any advice?
