   Dont let the fact that they say they are not hiring discourage you. A previous professor was giving me advice b4 I graduated. The professor said even when they say they are not hiring drop off your resume anyway. Whenever a spot opens up your resume ...

8. Having a tough time with my NAC course

   nrz2bee replied to Strawberrygirl2's topic in CNA/MA

   You'll do fine. Dont worry about the age think. The key is feeling comfortable with each skill using your personality. You dont have to be "motherly". A couple of us in the class I took were in our early 20s. Some people were in their late 50s. We al...

   Sounds encouraging, my first day of my first CNA job is next week and i am super nervous. I hope it goes well. Just curious, what did they have you do? Did you have to lift patients a lot?

10. Volunteering At Local Hospital

    nrz2bee replied to kendallhubbard's topic in General Nursing

    At the hospital i volunteered at there were signs outside the patients room that said NPO(meaning nothing by mouth or nothing prescribed orally) so i knew not to bring them anything even if they asked. As for as not bothering the nurses I did that by...

    nrz2bee replied to futureRN_Anastasia's topic in General Nursing

    I know your parents are trying to look out for you and your best interest but you should follow your dream. My mom wasnt keen on me changing my career path to nursing at first. I had open discussions with her about the profession and what nursing ent...
