CNA Certification in South OC


Does anyone know where I could go to get my CNA certification in south Orange County? If all goes well, I will be starting nursing school next spring or fall but I thought getting my CNA would get me more hands-on experience.....not to mention that it will look good on nursing school applications as well! :-) If anyone has any info I'd really appreciate it!

Capistrano-Laguna Beach ROP. I received my certification from there a few years ago.

If you can complete your CNA course at a local community college (8 weeks usually), you will learn more in depth skills and it will look more impressive on your application...this is per my two Nursing Professors.
Good luck...I am also waiting for the RN program and just completed my CNA course. It's worth the extra knowledge and skills you learn.

FWIW, the nursing admissions officers in OC don't care if you're a CNA or not. I'm a licensed midwife and it doesn't get me any extra points or kudos for getting into school. Believe me, I've asked
