Taking CNA class with immature classmates..UGHHHHH

I can relate. A couple of the people in my class didn't take things seriously when we were learning them (like performing skills) & it got on my nerves! I wonder if they're going to be successful in the nursing profession because their classroom behavior was less than professional. I think you shouldn't worry about them. Just do your best & don't let them distract you

What a time to stumble upon a thread like this... I had the same problem today. There is one particular girl in the class who acts immature if other students don't catch onto something fast enough or do a new skill fast enough in clinicals. She watches her fellow students like a hawk, points and does a very low giggle if a mistake is made/something is forgotten. She chit chats about it with whoever is next to her and makes critical remarks.

Considering she was the only one in our class who failed the CPR exam and the only one who did poorly on most of the theory, I don't think she has the right to criticize anyone. None of us criticized her for getting low grades and not knowing how to pronounce half of the words in our textbook. I think she owes the rest of us the same respect we gave her when she experienced difficulties learning.

I hoped there would be better behavior from a woman with 3 children but I guess age and motherhood doesn't guarantee maturity.
