    future_RN, CNA replied to Kimynurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    92% on HESI A2 Admissions Test which I found less difficult than the TEAS V test I took for another school that I got an 86% on. My cumulative GPA was 2.71 (Freshman year messed me up) and my GPA from...

  4. First Code Blue

    future_RN, CNA replied to LunaTunaPineapple's topic in General Students

    My first code was working (as a CNA, which I currently am still) in a Skilled Nursing Facility. It was 5 minutes before shift change and another floor called code blue, which we didn't have a code...

  6. Use of cellphones while at work

    future_RN, CNA replied to givxnchy's topic in General Nursing

    I'm probably going to catch heat for this but as a fellow CNA, I always keep my cell phone in my scrub pants side pocket. At many facilities I've worked in, employees have often discovered their stuff...

  7. Malcolm X Fall 2016 (CCCSON)

    future_RN, CNA replied to Messy's topic in Illinois Nursing

    It was probably the same advisor who told me we didn't have to have CNA/BNA. Even though I told them that is one of the bolded requirements on the website.. Lol. And omg early to mid- July??? That's...

  8. Malcolm X Fall 2016 (CCCSON)

    future_RN, CNA replied to Messy's topic in Illinois Nursing

    With a 4.0 and that high of TEAS scores you shouldn't be worried.

  9. Malcolm X Fall 2016 (CCCSON)

    future_RN, CNA replied to Messy's topic in Illinois Nursing

    My CNA certification is still active bc that's what I work as, but I'm not sure about the class expiration either. The only classes they stated expired for their application were the science classes...

  10. Malcolm X Fall 2016 (CCCSON)

    future_RN, CNA replied to Messy's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Again, good luck everyone! I'm just hoping my 3.1 GPA won't be my downfall. But my TEAS score will hopefully save me. The wait is driving me crazy tho!

  13. I was a stripper ..

    future_RN, CNA replied to FutureLPNNursing's topic in Nursing Career

    Hold on I said if you plan on quitting nursing (as a career, not as in nursing program). And no, I'm furthering my education so that I can play a larger role in patient care and use many nursing...

  14. New CNA advice

    future_RN, CNA replied to JohnCNA4's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    First and foremost, welcome CNA brother. As far as advice or what I wish I knew when I was starting out, so many things. Number one is to not stress out over things. Nobody was a seasoned anything...

    future_RN, CNA replied to FutureLPNNursing's topic in Nursing Career

  23. Should I leave this racist town?

    future_RN, CNA replied to ChutneyFries's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations
