I am in CNA classes, I would like to hear of anyone elses experiences in this, escecially those starting a bit later in life.
Did you go into nursing from class, or did you work as a CNA and decide you hate the nurses who didn't go that route? Are you a nurse frustrated with the new crop of CNAs? All is welcome, (Being civil) and would help me and anyone else going this route.
I will give my opinion so far about the class, doesnt seem enough to get me ready for what I am going to face. Clinicals have not started yet, 2 weeks away, and seems not enough time. When doing our checks in the labs the teacher is looking away half the time at a different group but just takes us at our own words that we did it right, and our group is only 6 people! I also notice some students being completly afraid to ask a question, or even get the teachers attention to let them know they have a question. The Nurses are going to eat them alive.
Edit: With good reason, this job is about communiation!
