  5. How to become a CNA in Washington state

    twinkletoes12 replied to horseygal01's topic in Washington Nursing

    Also, check out some local nursing homes. Some offer free classes. That's what I did. It took about 2 months and it was an 8 hour day 3 days a week. I didn't pay a penny except for the licensing...

  9. Anyone know anything about Grays Harbor College in Aberdeen?

    twinkletoes12 replied to twinkletoes12's topic in Washington Nursing

    Thanks for the reply. Did you have to travel very far for any out of town clinicals? I wonder where a peds clinical would be done? Tacoma perhaps? What made you go into diabetes education? Sorry...

  10. Anyone know anything about Grays Harbor College in Aberdeen?

    twinkletoes12 replied to twinkletoes12's topic in Washington Nursing

    Just curious about clinical sites, instruction, are people happy with the program...things of that sort. I know it's a little smaller like Centralia, but that's not necessarily a bad thing! Any...

  12. New Admissions standards for TCC RN program

    twinkletoes12 replied to LalaJJB's topic in Washington Nursing

    I don't plan to apply to TCC's lottery unless I don't get in anywhere else, but I think it's great to switch to a lottery. Since when is getting a B in a class so terrible? Just because someone can...

  15. This WA forum is so idle

    twinkletoes12 replied to WAstateRN's topic in Washington Nursing

    Here's my two cents for what it's worth for the previous posters. I would definitely get your CNA license, but do that after or while you are getting your prerequisites done. Every college wants the...

    twinkletoes12 replied to LiveYourDreams's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Hang in there...it will happen! Another thought. Are you flexible in your living location? Or do you have to stay in Portland? There are lots of schools in WA that are all very good too and some...

  20. Cna

    twinkletoes12 replied to RezqNinja's topic in Washington Nursing

    Contact LTC facilities! Some offer a free class and just make sure you don't sign anything that requires a work commitment. I did mine that way and it was perfect. They may offer for you to work...
