CNA north carolina???

Published

hello i have my cna in al and i got it about a year ago, however now i live in nc so i must get re-certified. i watched the videos on you tube by jtduncan56 and they were very helpful, they also seem about the same as the alabama skills. i took my first cna class with the american redcross and i got them the first time. since it has been a year since i took the test period i feel i need to take a class or something, plus i have no one to take to do the skills on so maybe i would meet someone if i did take the cna class. i have went on several websites and many of them are talking about taking a 2 day class (8 hrs) and then take the test that is what a few people said they did , however there are 2 programs and i don't know if i should even take it or if i did which should i take which one would be better? www.eliteexpresshealthcare.com by :panissa bryant rn bsn,mha thats one of them and this is the other http://www.nc-cna-training.com/ danielle hossler, rn. has anyone took either of the classes i listed? if so are they good? please let me know what you think i should do. how long after a cna class do i have to wait b4 i can test?

Hi!

I just took a CNA class and passed my skills test this summer. You really don't need to take another class if you have been a CNA before. All you need to do is use the booklet from http://www.pearsonvue.com, memorize the steps in the booklet, and challenge the test. There are two parts to the test, written and skills. The written is so easy a first grader can pass it. It's mainly common sense. Just keep confidentiality and patient safety in mind and you should do fine. Also, the skills test is based on the practice booklet. The proctor checks off each step in the booklet as you do the skill. The bolded steps are required to pass.

Good luck!
