Center work well together. They help each other out during busy times, and they enjoy camaraderie with the residents. They can often be overheard joking with each other and the residents. They are happy to trade days with one another when one needs a day off.That is until Joyce Jones joins their shift! The new nurse, Brian, didn't work out, so Joyce decides to move from the midnight shift to afternoons. Joyce has been an LPN for 6 years, and she has a powerful personality.When the director assigns her to work with Laine, Joyce lets Laine know that she doesn't need any orientation to her new shift—she knows it all! Laine is convinced that Joyce knows nothing of afternoon shift routines, but she is not about to help her out now. Joyce immediately befriends Ned, an afternoon shift certified nursing assistant (CNA), and Laine watches them walk down the hall arm in arm, as Joyce whispers to him. Laine is a bit concerned because typically the LPNs on her shift share the CNAs depending on their needs. Joyce can't have Ned all to herself!All is well until bedtime when Laine really needs some help from Ned. But he is Joyce's—she has him busy with his work and hers as well. Laine even sees Ned take some evening medications from Joyce and take them into a resident's room. THAT is not policy!! Only a licensed nurse can administer medications. Laine is concerned, but she keeps quiet.  -What type of behavior is Joyce exhibiting with Ned? Is this positive or negative? Why?
