CNA Skills Test

Published

Hey everyone!

I'm studying for my upcoming skills test, and I'm really nervous. While we were taking our class, we saw lots of groups come in for the test, and many failed! If you passed, how did you study for it? Any tips or hints are much appreciated! Thanks!

Yes! I took the test two weeks ago this Friday! I passed! :) It was really a long day. That was the hardest part. I took and finished the written test by 2:30 and then I wasn't called in to take the skills until 5:45 (but I had to wait around early, because some of the people for 5pm didn't show up and there was a chance I could be called early). My best advice would be to try to relax as much as possible, which obviously insn't easy. Don't forget to introduce yourself, leave the call light, and provide privacy! Good luck! Let me know if you have more ?s.

I was wicked nervous too when I took the skills test. As a matter of fact I didn't even finish because I was going really slow to make sure I did everything perfectly and I still passed the first time. My advice to anyone taking it is to stay calm and think out the steps carefully. It will all be ok in the end.
