I was just wondering are there any prairie state hopefuls for 2012 out there?

I meant " heard"
But who cares now we have Marie. She seems really nice and easy to approach!
Pinky:
I think she meant years years ago! Gwen was the dean of nursing for a long time! What year did you take CNA??

Me too! But I've never taken an online class So it should be interesting
I have taken a few online classes. The only one I had an issue with was College Algebra when I attended Ivy Tech in Gary. I ended up dropping it because it was too difficult for me. On another note, by what date do we need the American Heart Association CPR card?
I don't know we will know at orientation!
Mines don't expire until Oct 2013
I know you definitely need it by your first clinical day but try to get it before orientation. I'd recommend getting in the habit of doing things you know you need done ASAP because you'll never know what comes up later. So the physicals, titers, CPR card, etc I'd recommend having by the first day of class. But they'll let you know all of the due dates at orientation and they'll give you all the forms you need.

I took my CNA in 2010. I just got my CPR card last month from Ingalls for $50. You have to make an appointment, but it only takes 2 hours. It's all on a computer.
