It depends. In FL, most hospitals have CNAs who do most of these wonderful job duties (& I truly feel for them and help as much as I can). The more seasoned CNAs I've found will let someone like this know, in no uncertain terms, that she will not be doing this (this is said to someone who can do it him or herself but refuses to). And many times it's a 2-3 ppl job, where you have to log roll the huge mass to one side and try to hold on to it, while the other person tries to dress or clean it. Don't get me wrong, I don't begrudge helping you if you are hospitalized and your quadriplegic or comatose or have broken bones in your body..you know legitimate sicknesses..but if you are over 500 lb and it's the cause of your rotting foot..and you're too LAZY to do anything about it and you are able to, you are also unthankful, complain about everythng, and blame everyone for your afflictions..I don't feel sorry for you. I had an obese person tell me, can you believe the doctor? he told me to try going to the gym and eat better. Psshht this is what I pay for? Eye roll. Proceeds to finish off the last snacks that our unit has because she ate them all.
