Does having a Medical based job Help in Nursing School

I became an CNA/STNA back in 2003 and worked that field for about 2 years. I left it and went to do other things before decided to go to Nursing School. I honestly think that it gave me somewhat of an advantage. It can also be a disadvantage though. As an STNA you start to forget the "right" way and do it "your" way, mostly because of being understaffed or what not. To me it helped though. I knew exactly what NOT to do. LOL.

Congratulations on acceptance to nursing school! Even though I have not been a unit clerk, I have worked in hospitals for 27 years now. You know the regimen of your duties. Parts of them will be to your advantage in nursing school. Nursing school is the hardest thing that I have ever done. So apply yourself and you will be fine.
