Becoming CNA...hopefully will be nurse sometime in the future! Posted: 05-22-08 01:24am
I took CNA classes last summer, this
summer I'm actually looking into getting a
cna jo somewhere...any suggestions besides
a hospital? i looked into home health care
but was told not to do that, was thinking
about doin assisted living but I just
wanna do something i enjoy, this will be
my first job in the health care field and
i'm kinda nervous! I'm still in school and
hoping/PRAYING to get into a nursing
school SOMEWHERE when I apply haha...I
would really love to go into neonatal
eventually or something to do with
babies..though..i dont want one of mine
own anytime soon but...any words of
advice from other nurses around here is
greatly appreciated!!!!

assisted living home not too far from me
thats hiring and i have a friend working
at another and she said they might hire
me..so we'll see! i'm just ready to get
DONE with school and get into
nursing...i'd really love to work with
babies, maybe in labor/delivery or
neonatal, i just think thats something I'd
enjoy doing

thank you! I'm really looking forward to
getting into nursing school...kinda
stressed out about applying its really
competetive...i'm really nervous about
getting a cna job as well...i dont know
why really...i filled out an application
for home health care but they said I
needed 1 year experience...i put on the
application that I didn't have the one
year experience but still got a call back
so..i guess we'll see how that goes
