How do I start off as a CNA?

I'm going to start school for my CNA..?

  • But can I just take the state exam with out going to the classes or is it mandatory that you take the classes then take the state exam. Do you know of any CNA classes I can take online also?

  • Answer:

    Taking the test without going through the class is like baking cookies without getting all the ingredients. The cookies don't taste as good. You would not do well on the test. Go to classes and do it either in the evening or on the weekend but go to the class...not online. You will need various hours of clinical/hands on training. It is easier to go through the 6 week course in a classroom than online.

The state exam is a 2 part exam from what i remember oh about 7yrs ago. mine was done is mass. first is a written test. a lot of it is abbreviation's that you need to know. The other part is a hands on test. I would say take the classes first unless you have worked in a nursing home on somewhere where u have had experience. best of luck!
