UPDATE: I have come to accept the hardships that do come with this job and you know what I am only a CRT! The nurses and I have an understanding and I have earned my respect and communicate with everyone as much as possible…. Communication is KEY… Even if the nurse doesn’t want to hear it I still tell them what is going on with the resident and get my point across without insult of course. But on to my big problem lol I tried to take the RRT and I failed. I am not sure how to study for it and it has been extremely difficult with 2 young children to raise in my home as well. Well my three years are up and now I have to retake the CRT and take the RRT. Iew well it is my own fault. But I did take the RRT 3 times and failed by a couple points every time? I have been keeping up with my CEUs and my licence I do feel bad I can not for the life me pass the RRT and now I am not sure what will happen to me with all the changes in the future… Just a little worried and looking into other careers. But I have grown into the one I am at now and I love this place and what I have earned with it. I have paid my dues and worked really hard. I just hope I will still have this job 10 yrs from now with all the changes in the future.
