Just wanted to let you guys know that I passed!!! I got the pop up that doesn't say anything about contacting member w/e. It was the shorter message. Yay!

Just took my nclex PN in the state of MA earlier today and mine says the same "Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Another registration cannot be made at this time" it didn't say anything about "contacting the member board". Is this a good sign or no?

I feel like there's such a fine line between a Cna and a pca. Apparently according to the home health care agency i work for a pca can do anything as long it's" client directed". Which is strange... for example as a cna I can't suction a client but as a pca i can...

Pss stands for personal support specialist. Oh I see what you mean. Though I'm working for my client as a "pss" everything I do there pretty much is direct care from cleaning a trachea area and g tube to giving meds.. I just don't understand really the diff in a cna and a pss's job duties.

good luck! but i was just wondering if you will be doing your pre- requistes as a community college or a university? (just curious!)

I currently work for a home health care agency and i'm a licensed CNA. Though for the client i work for i work as a PSS. I really don't understand the difference of a CNA and a PSS. At my work place CNA's get paid $10.00 an hour but since i'm working as a PSS for my client i only get paid $8.50 an hour... I'm really confused with this whole CNA and PSS deal...

I think that is definitely a good idea! I'm basically in the same boat... im also 19 years old and I just got my cna last summer so now I do some home health care as a cna/pss. I go to a university right now though it's too competitive so I'm thinking of going for my associates first at a community college... but I think it sounds like a great idea! Ive learned so much working with my clients! :)))
