The price at my Community College is $390. + books, scrubs and $20. for insurance.

i live in ky. we have to take a&p, medical terminology, intro. to computers, cna class, writing 1, human growth & dev. and (drug calculations we have to have those before we start our core classes. my core classes are 3 semesters long.

nope, it's not offered with our cna class. wish it was. we have to take a different class 'cpr for healthcare provider'.

thanks, for clearing that up for me. i'm always asking our funeral director/mortian

do you know what happens to the bones that are still intact? just curious, since we had a couple that was cremated a few weeks ago. i kind of thought the ashes in the urn was the whole person.

sorry miwila, should have waited on your post to clear things up. i meant to say also around here ma's don't get much pay & not a lot of jobs for ma's.

sorry, i have to disagree. they aren't the same (cna vs. ma) i'm doing cna right now i'm going every saturday for the next 8 saturdays (8am-4pm.) then i believe we have to do 2 more days of clinicals. i was going to go to school to be a medical assi...
