   SlaveHeart posted a topic in California Nursing

   So where I live there is a waitlist of about three years to start the ADN program. I would like to apply to any Cal States that have programs that start in Summer 2013 (so I dont have to break my...

2. CNA Instuctor wants students to bath each other before real clinicals

   SlaveHeart replied to Desertrainfury's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   I can see how you would have an issue with the instructor requiring you to take everything off. My point was that no one in my class had any problems giving partial bed baths because even though we...

3. CNA Instuctor wants students to bath each other before real clinicals

   SlaveHeart replied to Desertrainfury's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   I'm sorry but could you please replace the word 'that' with what you intend to say. I get easily confused sometimes. No LPN or RN (I'm not sure which your instructor is) would risk loosing their...

4. Rant: I already hate my job

   *hug* hang in there. If it makes you feel any better I wish I had your job or any CNA job, no matter how miserable the

5. If I want to become a Dialysis Technician do I need to get my CNA Cert?

   SlaveHeart replied to 5ummer's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   I have applied to dialysis tech jobs with a CNA cert and they never call me for an interview. They want someone who has completed a hemodialysis tech certification or at the very least phlebotomy......

6. CNA + medical assisant

   SlaveHeart replied to amannimommy's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   Thanks for the advice TheCommuter! I have noticed there are just about as many MA jobs here as there are CNA jobs (which is not many for both) and they pay between 12-14 an hour instead of 9-10 an...

   SlaveHeart replied to Desertrainfury's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   In my CNA class we gave each other partial bed baths. We were told to wear tank tops and boxer like shorts so that our partners could practice undressing the robe and dressing with a button up shirt...

8. I think I got fired before I even got to start my new job.

   SlaveHeart replied to SlaveHeart's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   Yeah I'm signed up with a HHA and so far they have not had any openings other than overnights which they call and offer me even though I specified I'm only available from 7am to

9. Anyone from a different state moving to CA for private nursing school?

   SlaveHeart replied to rasberee's topic in California Nursing

   Did either of you go to the IOT in Redding? I'm pondering applying but I'm not sure if I could get enough financial aid. It's either that or wait three more years for the local ADN program. Please...

10. CNA + medical assisant

    SlaveHeart replied to amannimommy's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I am having trouble finding a CNA job during a day shift when my kids are in daycare. I would qualify for a WIA grant to cover tuition and supplies for a semester long MA program at the community...

    She is a licensed child care provider, she was recommended by the county office of education! None of the other referrals are able to take my kids by tomorrow night. I'm just glad that she realized...

    SlaveHeart replied to SlaveHeart's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Thanks for the kind words! When my kids were napping my dog got an earful. The worst part is I drank a whole pot of chai tea before leaving so I'm going to be up till ten anyways. There are three in...

13. I think I got fired before I even got to start my new job.

    SlaveHeart replied to SlaveHeart's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Thank you for your optimism! I doubt I will find alternative childcare because of my location. Would it be too out of line to ask if they have any first shift positions? When I interviewed I told them...

    SlaveHeart posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I have had the worst day ever and just need to vent. I am a single mom and have no family near me. I use a county subsidy to pay for daycare. I was finally offered a CNA job but the shift is not when...

15. If i become a CNA before nursing school where does it put me?

    SlaveHeart replied to Agreen911's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Your question is not clear to me. Some nursing programs require you to be a CNA to apply, some award extra points for the certificate. You do not get out of any classes just for being a CNA. A lot of...
