I'm a C.N.A. here in Colorado, I have never heard anything like that. I have sorted patients laundry before. Find out what Nevada's laws are. Look up on the internet:
CHAPTER 2 THE LEGAL REGULATION OF NURSING IN NEVADA
OR
NEVADA STATE BOARD OF NURSING
1755 E. PLUMB LANE, SUITE 760
RENO, NEVADA 89505
PHONE (775) 688 - 2620
FAX (775) 688 - 2628
good luck

That sure sounds absurd. What do they do if there isnt a laundry person on the shift? I have worked in several nursing homes and I know that as long as someone has shown you how to work the machines you can. They can not let the laundry pile up, someone has to do it. I have done it several times. Sometimes it was when there was too many stna's on the shift and i was offered to either go home or work in laundry and i took laundry. Hey it was a nice evening, i didnt like the smell but i tollerated it.
