BIT WORRIED.

[babyrog 0]

Hello to all vj families. I'm a bit worried now of my CNA state board application for my appointment (state board exam) coz it's been 8 business days already since I mailed it thru ordinary mail and until this day, no reply from NACES, Austin, Texas. Does anybody knew here, how long does it take to get a reply from NACES? And how 'bout the test questions and skills, are they easy or hard? Need some info here, please share specially those who done their CNA state board. Thanks in advance and God bless.

If I remember correctly the usual turn around time for the exam notice is usually 8 to 10 business days. So it might just be running a little slow. As far as getting in contact and checking on the application I'll have to look around and see if I can find something.

You can try calling this number to get in touch: 888-282-6904

If that number doesn't work then there's some other information on this site: http://www.asisvcs.com/indhome.asp?CPCat=0734NURSE

Take care.

I took the NC CNA exam back in April, and I didn't have any problems with it. I didn't go to a full class either, I took an express course that just went over the practical skills and general information.

Depending on where you take it and how strict/mad at the world your examiner is also factors in as it's up to them if they think you met the standard.

Always remember to introduce yourself at the beginning of each skill: "Hi my name's StVF101 and I'll be your CNA today. Today we'll be doing [insert skill here] is that all right with you? Okay, first let me give you some privacy (close the curtains) I see your bed is locked and low and I'm going to wash my hands and I'll be right back."

And at the end don't forget to ask: "Is there anything else I can do for you today? No, okay. Here's your call bell (place it within their reach) your bed is locked and low, let me open this up for you (reopen curtain) and I'm going to go wash my hands."

If you have any questions about how it goes then feel free to ask me.

Take care.

Easy to pass, Many High School students become CNA's
