No, that's because of the crushing weight of the charting and these places being chronically understaffed due to corporate greed. I worked as a CNA in a hospital, and we were doing our best to help everyone every second of our shift. It probably seemed like we were just disappearing because we never knew when we went into a room if we'd encounter a few seconds of questions, or if it would be an hour of assistance due to an emergency.
But I've also worked overnight at a nursing home, and there was definitely some downtime there, including for nurses.
