Had a horrible, horrible night that ended where me and one other aide were on the floor. Each of us had 20 or so patients apiece and a huge percentage were incontinent.
We set a goddamn record: Ten diaper changes, three of them necessitating a complete bed strip-down, in one hour and fifteen minutes. Beat that!

I work in a NURSING HOME and have never had that many dirty butts to change (ok, well, I have, but not with an additional 3 complete bed changes in an hour and 15 minutes).
