Depends on which school you are talking about. All schools are different. In our Nursing School it takes the 1st semester to be a CNA 1 and with two semesters you become CNA 2. I would ask an advisor at your school that works in that dept.

wow!! you guys are great! Thanks for all the information! Okay, yes, I did have a titer drawn and it read that I did not have antibodies to the virus but I have had one of the two shots of the vaccine. Whadda think? Still a chance i could get it if it is shingles? Thanks

okay...I have never had the chicken pox before and my pt had or has something that resembles shingles...it has not been diagnosed but just in case he does I am asking this question. Before going into the room I had no knowlege that this pt could possibly have this (his nurses didn't know either). I have had one shot of the varicella zoster ( I am suppose to have 2..waitng on the 2nd). My question is does anyone know if the chances of me getting the virus are good? or since I had the one shot would I be okay? Do you think I have enough antibodies? Has anyone experienced this before? Just a little concerned! Thanks!

it's alright! now you know...have your mother call you or someone close to you in addition to the alarm going off-just so it doesn't happen again! good luck to you!

:imbar no....we don't have to bathe eachother but that might not be a bad idea. May be embarassing but you may learn from it. Good luck!
