C.N.A Week At Avalon Valley Rehab
Planning C.N.A week ended up being a success. It took about a month to get every thing put together and in place for this last week. It was a HUGE deal for me to make sure we did something different then what they do every year, which is a BBQ & T-shirt. It was planned that we have a theme dress day/ some sort of treat/ craft/ massage & glitter toe pedicure/ trivia & prizes/ lunchoen.
Thursday: Survival KitCut fabric, glued ribbon, and assorted candy to 67 caning jars. They turned out better than I thought they would!
Friday: BBQ/ Causal Dress Day/ Trivia & Prizes
The DON, and ADON took my spot this day due to me being off work for a wedding. They asked random fun questions over the headsets, who ever was the first person to answer correctly would get a prize. Every staff member was able to participate.
Saturday: Donuts
Sunday: Fruit Plates
Monday: Chocolate/ Thank you Card/ Jersey Dress Day
I hand wrote 67 personal thank you cards to all the C.N.A staff members, which made my wedding gift thank you cards that I wrote last year seem like NOTHING! It took lots of time during my shifts each day, but finished in time to hand them out with the chocolate bar.
It was FUN sporting Joe's high school football jersey for theme day.
Tuesday: Spa, Pamper Day: Glitter Toes, Massages, Hand Wax/ Causal Dress Day
The administrators wife works at a spa, he got us hooked up with pedicures from professionals. The massages were also from a group of professionals. Each C.N.A was to sign up for either/ or! What a Girly Day!
Wednesday: Luncheon/ Surprise Gift
It was a success. With lots of help setting up and prepping, it took 4 Platters of sub-way sandwiches to ease this bunch. The surprise was a t-shirt stating "nursing is a work of heart" which looks like the chocolate bar on the back of the shirt.
Fun stuff, but...I'm glad it's done and over with! :)
