Epcc nursing advice cna while going to school

[Dakany30]

Hello, this is actually my first time here, and dont really know how it works , but i need some help. Ive been a cna for 2 years now and recently applied to the nursing program at my community college. They just sent out the letters and im pretty scared and anxious to know whether or not ill get in. Anyways in any case i do get in is there any possibility of working as a cna 12 hour shifts while going to nursing school? Or is it too far fetched?? Im a mother and a wife so i cant stop working so im trying to see what my options are.

thanks in advance for the advice!

While I cannot help you from personal experience, I did read this post/article which I found helpful in regards to preparing for the fall. I too am a wife and mother so I completely understand your position.
