school as in CNA class? If so, there is no ONE book that every school uses, your school will give you the book that you will need for the course....in addition, if you go to the CNA forum, I'm sure there are folks who will give you a heads up on what to review before class....can't think of anything off the top of my head for you to review without a book, but my advice: relax...If you are into the class, it will be very easy for you. Good luck

EDIT: I reread your post, do you mean nursing school for LPN or RN? If you which classes are you trying to review for?

When I started my CNA classes, the CNA forum was a tremendous help! My school used a textbook that is now discontinued but I am sure that it is quite similar to the one they are now using. But my biggest advice is this: Check out your state's BoN (Board of Nursing) website and go the CNA section and they will more than likely have a downloadable .pdf handbook for what is included in the CNA program in your state. Did I mention that the CNA forum will be a big help? Good luck and I hope all goes well with your plan of action! CNA's are a very very important part of the nursing team :balloons:

Hey don't worry about the CNA class. The material learned in there is very simple and basic. Passing the CNA class should be the least of your worries. Don't stress it, just relax and take it a day at a time. I passed the class without studying. Just practice your skills and talk your self through it.
