Got certified...
Passed my state exam today for becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant. I know it's not like graduating from college or anything, but I passed with flying colours, and feel very accomplished, so I wanted to share. Thank you.

Hey Prince...Welcome to the healthcare world. Sometimes it sucks, but it's mostly rewarding. Just try to wait a couple of months before the cynicism creeps in!

Wish I liked that flavor of work. Congratz.
I see alot of ads with all sorts of bonuses and incentives to get certified RNAs / CNAs to choose their medical establishment over th other guys. I remember back in the day I was still under the dellusion the tech industry would be like that. Anyways, best of luck to you. |

Uhh, technically, nurses aren't doctors' "assistants"... But generally speaking you've got the right idea, in the sense that CNAs do the hands-on work that nurses don't have to. We report to nurses, so I guess in that sense we're assisting them, but our main focus is on the residents/patients.

Hey - congratulations! My sister is currently studying to take the Virginia State Board Exam on July 10. Hopefully she'll be joining you in the ranks of officially certified CNA's.
