Sooo... Tired of the crap

HI, Im a cna and have been for three years. I love my job, but I am so tired of working in Ltc I am hurt and frustrated. At my facility there is a constant fear of getting into trouble for anything at all. I try my hardest to give my residents the best care that i can i just cant do enough fast enough. I am the only experienced aid on my unit, therefore i assume responsibility for less able, newer aids. My night shift has a conflict with not wanting to change wet people on there rounds and blames my shift for it. We stay late almost every day, giving extra care during our rounds but it does not correct the problem. Today i decided simply that they are not doing there job and this is the problem. Ive worked with these people before and know their working habits. They dont even change half these residents on their first rounds. 'They leave the sheets wet and put pads over them for us to find and clean up two shifts later. These people should not be aids. so upset angry and hurt i want to cry.
