   That actually makes me kind of nervous because there will be more students in the Winter drawing! They’ll probably send emails out soon because it’s almost the end of August. I wonder if they will address the whole CNA thing when they put up the list...

   Hi! Still haven’t heard anything ? I was told that once you complete your clinicals then your CNA instructor is supposed to send you a link to schedule the test. Did you hear that as well? Because when I look on Pearson vue it looks like they aren’t ...

   It was hard for me to accept it tbh LOL. We work super hard to meet all these deadlines and then Covid showed up. Ugh. Everything happens for a reason I guess! Your time will come!! ❤️

   So I just found out there’s a nursing home called Orchard Park that’s hiring NAR’s. Not the best reviews on Google but thought I’d let you know. My CNA instructor told me she got the go ahead to continue clinicals at the end of next month. So, I gues...

   I’ve called around to so many places to see if they’re hiring NAR’s in the area and I’m not having any luck!! Are you?! Please let me know if you know of any

   That’s a good choice, I think that will be our best option right now. I wonder if the nursing students are even doing clinical right now?! Or if the fall cohort will be? I know a lot of other schools are just doing everything online still.

   My CNA instructor said you have to finish clinicals (or get a job to fulfill the requirements) before you can even schedule the state test. So.. that makes me a bit nervous!! At least we still have the option of Winter quarter if we can’t get everyth...

    Right?! We might not have a choice!! LOL I’m concerned about how long it’ll take to schedule the state written and skills exam, too. Do you know anything about that??

    What?! I don’t get it. It sounds as if it wasn’t necessary to pay almost $1000 for the CNA training LOL But can we test without clinical? Hmm.. I’m confused, too. ?

    Yes, definitely! How long do you think it’ll be until they send the first round of emails out? I’m always checking my mailbox even though I know it probably won’t happen for a couple of weeks

    I KNOW. That’s exactly my thought. No one will hire me as an NAR for a week LOL That’s what my CNA instructor suggested to me as well. This whole thing is a headache. If I get selected for the lottery but can’t meet that requirement I’m going to be s...

    Hey, just an FYI - I just spoke with the director and she said that the clinicals MUST be done by Sept. 1st but we would still be entered in the lottery. Doesn’t seem like they’re going to budge. ?

    I have already taken Bio 160 with Curt. I also took Micro with him. I think he’s an awesome teacher! I’m not sure if it was still available when I made the suggestion! I’d be super disappointed if I was in your shoes, too, but you’re right.. maybe it...
