depends on the facility. i started this career 11 years ago in a hospital. you know what my training was? they dumped me in the er with a cart and a mop and the lady who worked the er left that day and i just asked nurses what needed to be done and they told me where to go. was there for 2 years until i started working an office building for more money. there they actually "trained" me by showing me which areas were my responsibility.  when i worked in that hospital, the other guy on my shift was a 63 yr old vietnam vet. i remember new managers took the place over and told us we needed to be "trained". his answer to that? "what kind of fucking training do you need to be able to push a mop?" i still use that line to this day when the owner asks me to train new hires.
