Re: Best CNA study book for state certification exam?
I bought a CD from Avanza which was a little bit helpful, although the skill steps only approximately matched my state's requirements. I think watching the CNA videos on You Tube helped me. There are many, some are better than others.
Our text was the big Mosby book, but I barely read any of it. And the CD was useless. Really, the best way to solidify your skills is to practice them until you feel like you don't even have to think about them in terms of steps. While you practice it may be helpful to have flashcards in your pocket (writing the steps helps too) in case you get stuck at some point.
The written test is cake. If you've gotten the basics out of the lecture portion, you will pass that. The critical part, skills, is not something a book will help you with.
