Back when I was a cna working in a snf, I was frequently the only white staff member on the shift. We had one patient that once made a racial remark to a black cna, who took offense. We were able to work around that, but I would hate to think there would be a facility full of old bigots. How could you manage assignments? And I am sorry, if you are on the floor, we are going to use everyone available, black, white, purple or plaid to pick you up. Sue us later if you want. You will look like a fool.
