Posted over 5 years ago I have been a CNA when i didn't even know it. I took care of my grandmother for 5 years and CNA knowledge would have helped me. But i took classes and now have been employed for bout 3 years now. I am taking my prequites for nursing prgm. I am Native American, so i want to be closer to home, work at the local hospital is my goal. |

I know that now that I am a cna I wish that I would have been able to take care of my mom and dad before they passed on but I did not take the class until 3 years ago and they have been gone for 5 years with my dad and my mom has been gone for 12 years. I think that you will do great at your local hospital. |

| Posted over 5 years ago One of the best accidents that happened to me is becoming a CNA.I was so afraid of sick and old people before I becameone.I couldn't bear to be around them.But after my daughter was born and when my husband was ill the knowledge was invaluable.It has also helped me to apprecate the value of family a liitle bit more. |

| Posted over 5 years ago After being a CNA I was better able to care for my children!
When my mother in law needed care I was able to communicate with the Doctor and keep her at home surrounded by her children and grandchildren until her life's journey ended. Amazing you have to have a liscense to drive a car, be old enough to drive and vote, have a liscense to open a bubble gum machine, but you don't have to have one to be a parent! My CNA liscense enhanced my ability to be a better mother. Admiring the Struggle it takes to be Human |
