Found what I was looking for

WRITTEN EXAM: May include knowledge of nonprofessional nursing care and technique; medical terminology and metric measurements; hospital procedures, safety and infection control.

I had to take a written test. It included BP info, medical terms, general patient care questions. Very easy.:)
