I am not a CNA.  But people like to be able to help others and being a CNA is a start into the medical field.  Don't stop there.  Go for your LPN and work in a hospital or medical that offers tuition reimbursement.  Let them help you financially through nursing school.  CNAS's are at the bottom of the ranks and other nurses will treat you as such.  Expect more for yourself and don't stop there.  Good Luck.

In order for you to bcome an LPN you must take the CNA class 1st. its 1st on the list before you can take CMA, LPN, and RN. if you also want to take Home Health Care(Aide). hha is for home care. like i said you must get your (CNA) = Cerified Nurses Assistant cerificate and license before lpn and rn.

Take a course in first aid and get certified in CPR. You may want to learn about childcare (giving baths, changing diapers, etc) for more experience. I have never heard of a babysitting license?

wow!  I've never heard of having to have a GED for CNA!!  I've had friends that have been CNA's since they were 16years old... but Indiana is a little more liberal with health care stuff

That is a really scary thought that you can just buy your license online, I sure hope you are only talking about a renewal.I am sure you would have to contact your state board of nursing for requirements, etc.

I don't think CNA's do that much lifting...It also depends where you are going to work at. Ive seen some CNA's in an old folks home help assist the patient with medicine, eating, bed position, etc...Ive also seen others do absolutely nothing lol..Ive never seen them lift patients or move them to other beds

talk to the Citizens Advice Bureau as they deal with similar issues and are independent and they will be able to tell you the kind of licences you will need etc..

I don't know about Texas, but where I live in California, some of the convalescent homes offer free certified nursing assistant classes. I don't know if there is a catch to these free classes (like maybe you get the classes for free but you have to agree to work for that particular convalescent home for a certain period of time once you graduate from the classes). Might be worth checking out if you have some convalescent homes in your area.

Yes, check with the local nursing homes, a lot of these offer classes. Also check about going to work at the nursing home, since you are still in school you could apply to work weekends. Usually the nursing home will provide your CNA training for free if you are an employee.

Yes you can. A local hospital in my area hires them. A certified nursing assitant can work almost anywhere that hires them as long as they are under the supervision of a registered nurse. So go for that job! Most likely your duties would include helping patients to the bathroom who stay overnight for pain treatments,bathing non-ambulatory patients,etc. They need CNAs just as much as any other hospital. I don't know what state you live in but here are north carolinas regulations.\n*Employment MUST include ALL FOUR (4) of the following to qualify for listing renewal:\n1) Work is for monetary compensation\n2) Work is as a nurse aide, performing direct patient care\n3) Work is under the supervision of a registered nurse\n4) Total time worked equals eight (8) hours or more

CNA's handle personal care for patients. Bathing,Feeding, cleaning up any accidents, taking them to the toilet(if they can't themselves), dressing, range of motion exercises(for those that need it), taking temperatures, blood pressures, emptying cathetor bags,.. and the list goes on and on.\n\nOn the 3rd shift we would have to do rounds every 2 hours and make sure noone was soiled. If they were, you had to change them. Take temperatures of those that needed it, empty cath bags, turn the people that couldn't turn themselves (so they did not get bedsores) When you have up to 18 patients a night, it is not easy. We also had to get 2 up and ready each morning.Sometimes pass out food trays and help feed. Plus charting intake(fluids) and outputs(urine)\n\nHope that helps.

First it isn't an actual license it is a certificate, so once you have moved you should just be able to transfer to different state.  A license you have to pay every 2years or so to renew like as a nurse or doctor.  good luck

I think scheduled breaks are a must. I schedule all of the cna and licensed nurse breaks.\nOur report used to be sitting around a table and hearing noc shift tell us whats going on, now we doing report while doing walking rounds.\nI have things set up just the way I like them on my unit.
