state board nightmares!

Published

in about 2 weeks, im due to take the state board to recieve my CNA. im currently in high school, but attending a tech school in az and dont know how to study for both high school tests and the state board. what do i need to know? can anyone help me out! thanks bunches!!

If your doing well in your CNA course, I wouldn't worry about the written part of the test, you'll most likely do well on it. Granted I took mine over 10 years ago, ours was mostly on safety issues, hand washing, and patient privacy. As for the clinical part, just relax, take a deep breath and have confidence. I agree with the Rapheal that your H.S studies should be a priority. Good luck ! :)

thank you so much for the review of what i should be expecting. i have heard the writen part is very easy. right now, im doing clinicals at the local hospital and am getting more relaxed doing that. im only a junior in high school right now so im getting a head start at things but am getting overwhelmed with school work and worrying about the board. but knowing the support i have, will help me to realize im sure im not the only stressed one out there! thanks again.
