My First Job As A CNA

Published

Hey guys! I am so excited to announce that I finally landed a job as a CNA at Vanderbilt University Medical Center!!! It is in the Neuro/Epilepsy Monitoring Unit and I cannot wait to start. I just wanted to see if anyone had any advice or words of encouragement as I embark upon this new journey in life. Thanks to all for taking the time to read! :)

Sincerely,

Reba Minenna

Congrats! I wouldn't post where you work though. Some employers are particular about that and you'll wanna remain anonymous here :)

Definitely ask the admin to take out that private info ( name/where you work) AllNurses is definitely somewhere to remain anonymous

Hi, congrats! I am a cna but I work for home health. I have a few friends from my class who decided to do something like that, and my best advice would be don't let it stress you out. It will teach you much needed patience for the future! And if you don't like it think about home health, it's shore fun and it's more personal with your patient. I love my job! Good luck to you!
