Will i catch on?

Ok, today was my first day at my facility. I work in ssu. I have 2 more days to orientate with an experienced CNA, I did a couple of bed baths, dressing the pt and fed a few pts, I did pretty good, but it could've been better. I even met a few pts that were super nice, one lady even helped me, she didn't need the gait belt, but she helped me "train" myself. Is 2 days good enough to catch on? I don't want to be "alone" and lost. Do you guys have any tips? Thanks in advance.
A websearch gave me this site:http://www.4cnas.com/

Not sure what an SSU is so it's hard to say?

You will eventually get it. Good luck!

You'll be fine. If you're worried about doing something potentially harmful, ask the nurse until you're both comfortable.

Two days of orientation is not enough to orient you to the job. Typical orientations are 4-6 weeks. Not two days. But in looking around I see it varies.

If they are not oriented properly to their role within your workplace, they are likely to become stressed, overwhelmed and anxious to move on to another job. This vicious cycle is part of why CNA turnover is so high across the United States.There is good news. Studies have shown that, on average, when an organization institutes a high quality orientation, their turnover rate decreases by 50% within two years! A good orientation program should include information on professionalism, communication, teamwork, patient rights, infection control, time management, stress management, personal wellness, customer service, cultural diversity, quality improvement, documentation and lots of practical client care tips.So, as Nike says, just do it! Orient your nursing assistants and you'll improve your aide retention rates and provide the tools and support that CNAs need when they begin a new job."http://ezinearticles.com/?Do-CNAs-Re...on?&id=3214296
