  2. Experience: Volunteering vs. CNA
    I would do the CNA course because it's hands-on patient care. I think it can also give you an advantage when you start to apply to jobs. For the nursing program I went to, we were required to be CNA...

  3. Need help! Or opinion!

    I took A&P online and had to teach myself, which was very time-consuming. Whether you're taking it online or not, I found that youtube has some videos that can explain things in a different way and...

  10. Accelerated BSN programs in Ct
