1. Not Sure If I Have What it Takes

   luckystarr replied to MattieFern's topic in CNA/MA

   Hey! I am a student right now so this will be a very generalized response, but I hope it helps. You said you were working on weight loss? I assume that when you first started briskly walking your dogs it was a little more demanding than it may be now...

   luckystarr replied to CNAMichelle's topic in CNA/MA

   CNAMichelle, I am curious if you don't mind, what city are you working/living in? I am in GA also, in Gainesville and I don't know if that is common pay here or not. (I start my classes at Lanier Tech at Fall Quarter)

4. CNA course and Piercings

   luckystarr replied to Natny23's topic in CNA/MA

   IMO, I would take it out. Just a few moons ago, I had my labret, eyebrow, 4 in each ear and my top cartilage in. I can def. tell a difference in how people treat me on first impression, now that I do not wear them. If you know you will have to take i...

7. Curious about your courses

   luckystarr posted a topic in CNA/MA

   I start my courses in September with Lanier Tech. here in GA I was wondering if typically CNA's in other states just have to take a CNA course or if there are other classes you have to take. For example, at my new school, I have to take Diet & Nu...

8. Aspiring CNA

   luckystarr replied to luckystarr's topic in CNA/MA

   It's ok, alot of people don't know. It's a person (typically a woman), hired privately by the mother, who is trained to know the physical and emotional needs of a woman in labor. Through my certifying organization I am trained to have knowlede in the...

9. Aspiring CNA

   luckystarr replied to luckystarr's topic in CNA/MA

   Actually, I can't say that I will "never" want to, because I have never worked in health care. Maybe as I get my feet wet I would be more likely to persue higher ranks. Maybe I am just intimidated, to be honest. I do not have issue with bodily fluids...

10. FED UP CNAS!!!!

    luckystarr replied to marineswife0809's topic in CNA/MA
