CNA Online programs/ training

[xmlvgp]

Hi to all. I have been thinking about becoming a CNA to get hands-on experience including getting exposed to patient-care. I was not able to start my volunteer program at Sutter Hospital through my school due to COVID as well as being busy within the Summer taking 3 pre-reqs. I was able to acquire a few remote volunteering jobs, but training as a CNA has been my main priority. I was wondering if there are any legit, accredited CNA online programs that I may enroll in. There are a few CNA programs near me, but most coincide with my schedule this fall and require being in class. Anything helps :')

I do not think there's any online CNA programs. The closest will be an online CNA instruction with in-person clinicals during this pandemic. Nevertheless, do look to see if any in-person CNA programs have moved their entire program online. Remember the skills you learn for the state exam will not be the real skills you perform as CNA. Actual CNA work is really different from skills practice. Clinicals will help but when you get a CNA job, you will learn more from working. You'll find your own way and tips.
